Consumers’ Need For Prestige: Scale Development

The need for prestige is deeply anchored in everyday social life. This research details the development of the “Consumers’ Need for Prestige” scale designed to measure individual differences in aspiring prestige. The 21-item CNFP scale consisting of the impression-oriented, social-approval, and impressible dimensions demonstrate reliability, convergent, discriminant, and nomological validity.
