“…This influence may result in important outcomes, such as mating attraction (Hudders et al, 2014; Sundie et al, 2020) and rival deterrence (Wang & Griskevicius, 2014). Thus, luxury for women (Stokburger‐Sauer & Teichmann, 2013) may be different from men (Kiymalioglu et al, 2018). Gender plays a moderating role for both social and individual value perceptions (Jain & Mishra, 2018).…”

Previously, signalling status had been primarily studied from the conspicuousness of luxury brands, including high prices and prominent designs. However, less attention has been directed toward other elements of brands that could be strategically managed in order to enable consumers signalling status. This study synthesizes the literature using a framework based on four intangible attributes of luxury brands: user profile, purchase usage, personality and values and heritage. The topics studied under each of the four intangible attributes were analysed using a systematic approach. Based on the interconnectedness of the topics studied, this review proposes that the intangible attributes used as a framework may have a synergistic interaction, in contrast with the current perspective that considers them as independently and equally relevant for consumers signalling status. It also reports the psychological function of these intangible attributes and supports the notion that consumers use luxury brands either to routinely affirm their status within a group or to enhance that status. This review contributes to the literature on luxury and signalling by considering luxury consumption as a social process. A functional perspective on the intangible attributes of luxury brands provides the basis for some insightful directions to advance this field of research.

“…There are 5 dimensions in the multidimensional culture typology developed by Hofstede, which focuses on cultural differences in the international arena; power distance, masculinity vs femininity, uncertainty avoidance, individualism vs collectivism and long-term vs short-term orientation. Hofstede has been criticized because he focused only on international culture (Kiymalioğlu;et al, 2018).…”

The norms and attitudes within the organizational culture do not comply with the interests and expectations of the members of the organization so that can cause anxiety. This study aimed to explore the effect of between organizational culture on anxiety levels of employees. The research sample included 243 respondents from 10 randomly selected companies that agreed to participate in the research. Beck Anxiety Scale and O'Reilly et al.’s Organizational Culture Profile (OCP) was used for measuring organizational culture and anxiety level. The exploratory factor analysis identified seven components of organizational culture namely aggressive, stable, outcome-oriented, innovative, detail-oriented, team-oriented, and people-oriented. And four components of anxiety levels of employees namely general anxiety, acute anxiety and trauma, autonomic anxiety, and subjective anxiety. There was an only significant relationship between the organizational culture and the subjective anxiety which is the sub-dimension of the anxiety levels of employees. The main findings of this study, organizational culture does not affect the anxiety levels of employees. The side findings of this study, there was no statistically significant difference anxiety levels of employees by gender. I suggest that future researchers carry out similar studies using a larger and different sector sample.
