Assignment Questions

1. What gave Cuvelier the idea that there was a market for $10.00 vodka?

2. Are there brands you can point to that have used strategies similar to those employed by SVEDKA?

3. What is the brand positioning statement that might guide integrated marketing communications? How has the positioning evolved over time? Where is it headed?

4. What advice would you give Cuvelier for SVEDKA’s rollout strategy?

5. Which elements of his total marketing strategy is he relying on for success in this market?

Use the vodka industry data set to evaluate the effect of price and advertising on sales by answering the following:

6. Run a regression of the natural logarithm of change in sales on the natural logarithm of previous period’s prices, and the natural log of marketing expenditures on print, outdoor, and broadcasting.

7. To understand the influence of vodka quality, run a regression by adding the tier 1 and tier 2 dummy variables (that indicate whether a vodka brand belongs to first- or second-quality tiers) to the set of independent variables in question 6.

8. To understand the influence of competition and brand power, run a regression by adding the sum of sales of all the competing brands in the previous year (“lagtotalminussales”) to the independent variables in question 7.

9. To measure the sales growth of new brands compared with the existent ones, include the variable “firstintro” to the independent variable set in question 8. “Firstintro” is equal to one in the first three years after a brand is introduced and is zero elsewhere.

10. Why does the coefficient of price and advertising change in the above regressions?

11. Based on your analysis of the Vodka data, what recommendations do you have for Cuvelier regarding the marketing mix for SVEDKA?

For your Unit 6 Assignment, you will be acting as a lead researcher regarding a hypothetical vicarious liability situation detailed below. For this assignment assume that your immediate supervisor has asked you to prepare a memorandum that highlights support for a particular research-based solution to the situation described. Conduct research on Westlaw (accessible via the Kaplan University Library) based on the following hypothetical.

Hypothetical:

John Stokely is a sales executive for AAA Auto Dealers, a local automobile dealership. He often drives to the manufacturing facility, which is 150 miles from the dealership, to check on new orders. John’s employer reimburses him for gasoline, food, and lodging, and provides John with a dealer car to drive. While driving to the manufacturing plant, John decided to stop by his cousin’s house for dinner. His boss accompanied him on the visit “to get a decent meal for a change.” While on the way there, John collided with and injured a motorcyclist. Is AAA Auto Dealers liable for John’s negligence? Research the legal issues surrounding vicarious liability of employers and respondeat superior. You should also research the coming and going rule along with frolic and detour rules for vicarious liability. Reference both primary sources and secondary sources in your research. Examples of primary sources include cases, statutes, constitutional provisions, and regulations. Examples of secondary sources including law reviews and journals, treatises, Restatements, dictionaries, and the Restatement of Torts.

Part One: Research Log

For Part One of the assignment, answer the questions below about the research you conducted.

  1. What primary sources did you use?
  2. What secondary sources did your use?
  3. What search terms did you use for each search?
  4. What search method did you use (Terms and Connectors, Natural Language, and/or Easy Search)?

Part Two: Analysis

After conducting research, discuss in a memorandum to your immediate supervisor whether AAA Auto Dealers are liable for John’s negligence based on your research. Be sure to take position and support it adequately. The memorandum should be 1–2 pages in length using 12 point Times New Roman font, double-spaced lines, and one-inch margins. Make sure to cite your sources using APA and Bluebook citation format. The document should be in a Microsoft Word 2003 or 2007 file format.

Discussion 1 Aggressive Behavior

/in /by

Discussion 1: Aggressive Behavior

Social psychologists have studied the social forces that influence aggressive behavior. Research on aggression highlights personal, situational, and environmental factors that may uniquely influence the likelihood of aggressive behavior (Bushman & Huesmann, 2010). The media in this week’s Learning Resources demonstrates how aggressive behavior happens, even when it was unintended.

For this Discussion, review this week’s Learning Resources. Students with last names beginning with the letters A–M review the Stanford Prison Study. Students with last names beginning with the letters N–Z review the media on Abu Ghraib.

Note: In the event of a broken link, please review the articles on each of the studies to complete the assignment.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post by Day 3 the identity of the event to which you were assigned. Then explain two potential situational factors that may have influenced the aggressive behavior demonstrated in the event. Explain two possible personal factors that may have influenced this aggressive behavior. Finally, employing a social psychology perspective, explain two ways the aggressive behavior might have been prevented. Use the current literature to support your response.

Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources.

Discussion 2: Dehumanization and Online Aggression

Dehumanization has been defined as a denial of humanness to others and has been associated with aggression and a host of negative consequences (Moller & Deci, 2009). In contemporary society, the use of computer-based communications and social media outlets creates an open opportunity for people to be aggressive. For example, the increase of anonymity through technology has provided a medium for aggression. The current literature suggests that the power differential between the online aggressor and the victim is not considered enough (Bushman & Huesmann, 2010; Fiske, 2014). Both of these issues can lead to dehumanization.

For this Discussion, consider a situation in which aggressive behavior could occur online and think about how it might foster dehumanization.

Post by Day 4 a brief description of the situation you selected. Then explain three potential factors that might foster dehumanization/de-individuation and lead to online aggressive behavior. Finally, using a social psychology perspective, explain two ways online aggression could be reduced. Be specific and use the current literature to support your response.

Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources.
