The Rivalry Effect: the Influence of Emotional Intensity and Confrontational Interactions on Purchase Intentions

The authors examine how and why brand rivalries influence consumer choices. We propose and test a novel conceptual framework demonstrating that emotional intensity and confrontational interactions are the main factors of a rivalry. Also, brand rivalries are found to foster brand interest, which in turn increases purchase intentions.
