Table 7.2: Relati<strong>on</strong>ship promoti<strong>on</strong> resp<strong>on</strong>se and social class<br />

SOCIAL CLASS<br />

Test results: Social class and promoti<strong>on</strong> resp<strong>on</strong>se are positively related.<br />

The results in Table 7.2 indicate that social class is positively related with promoti<strong>on</strong><br />

resp<strong>on</strong>se. The lowest class uses the available sales promoti<strong>on</strong>s the least. More insights can<br />

be derived when this relati<strong>on</strong>ship is investigated distinguishing between in-store and out-<str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g>store<br />

promoti<strong>on</strong>s.<br />

We perform two separate analyses for in-store (display related) and out-<str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g>-store<br />

(feature related) promoti<strong>on</strong>s to take the interacti<strong>on</strong> effect <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> promoti<strong>on</strong> type into account.<br />

The resulting estimated coefficients <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the binary logistic regressi<strong>on</strong> can be found in Table<br />

A7.4 (size and age are included linearly, cycle is included as a categorical variable in the<br />

analysis) and Table A7.5 (size and age are included as categorical variables, cycle is<br />

excluded from the analysis). The estimates for the relati<strong>on</strong>ship between social class and<br />

promoti<strong>on</strong> resp<strong>on</strong>se can be found in Table 7.3.<br />
