description Purpose: This article investigates the influence of female intrasexual competition on the consumption of luxury goods in emerging and developed economies.Design/methodology/approach: the research consists of a survey of 437 women from both emerging and developed economies to perform a cross-culture analysis. The approach is quantitative with the application of exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and multiple linear regression.Originality/value: the study intends to fill research gaps in analysing the motivations of women when purchasing luxury goods and their relationship with consumption as a strategy for intra-sexual competition, namely in emerging countries, where access to luxury goods has been delayed due to the late opening of the markets.Findings: The results show that female intrasexual competition, in the context of attracting a romantic partner, play an important role in the consumption of luxury goods. Women display luxury items when feeling threated by another woman. The country's moderation did not interfere in the relationship between female intra-sexual competition and the consumption of luxury goods.Theoretical and practical contribution: these results are important and precursors on the topic in the area of management and marketing. Previous studies focusing on these countries have restricted the scope of sexual selection to the field of psychology. Understanding the uniqueness of luxury goods consumption is an important analytical and strategic factor for marketing professionals.

A abordagem é quantitativa com a aplicação de análise fatorial exploratória, análise fatorial confirmatória e regressão linear múltipla.Originalidade/valor: O estudo visa preencher lacunas de pesquisa, analisando as motivações das mulheres na aquisição de produtos de luxo e a relação do consumo como estratégia de competição intrasexual, nomeadamente em países emergentes, onde o acesso a produtos de luxo tem sido retardado devido à abertura tardia dos mercados.Resultados: Os resultados mostram que a competição intrasexual feminina, no contexto da atração de um parceiro romântico, desempenha um papel importante no consumo de produtos de luxo. As mulheres exibem itens de luxo quando se sentem ameaçadas por outras mulheres. A moderação dos países não interferiu na associação da competição intrasexual feminina com o consumo de produtos de luxo.Contribuição teórica e prática: Estes resultados mostram descobertas pioneiras para a área de gestão e marketing. Estudos anteriores enfocando esses países restringiram o escopo da seleção sexual ao campo da psicologia. Compreender a singularidade do consumo de produtos de luxo é um fator analítico e estratégico importante para os profissionais de marketing.Universidade Nove de Julho - UNINOVE2021-03-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uninove.br/remark/article/view/1794010.5585/remark.v20i1.17940ReMark - Revista Brasileira de Marketing; v. 20 n. 1 (2021): (jan./mar.); 105-1312177-5184reponame:REMark - Revista Brasileira de Marketinginstname:Universidade Nove de Julho (UNINOVE)instacron:RBMenghttps://periodicos.uninove.br/remark/article/view/17940/8821Copyright (c) 2021 Luciana Merlin Bervian, Dinorá Eliete Florianihttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBervian, Luciana MerlinFloriani, Dinorá Eliete2025-01-28T18:37:31Zoai:ojs.periodicos.uninove.br:article/17940Revistahttps://periodicos.uninove.br/remarkPRIhttps://periodicos.uninove.br/remark/oaiclaudiaraac@uol.com.br || admin@revistabrasileiramarketing.org || admin@revistabrasileiramarketing.org2177-51842177-5184opendoar:2025-01-28T18:37:31REMark - Revista Brasileira de Marketing - Universidade Nove de Julho (UNINOVE)false
