问题     Some consumer researchers distinguish【C1】______ " rational" motives and "emotional" (or "non-rational" motives. They use the term "rationality"【C2】______ the traditional economic sense that assumes【C3】______ consumers behave rationally when they carefully consider all alternatives【C4】______ choose those that give them the greatest utility (i. e. , satisfaction). 【C5】______ a marketing context, the term "rationality" implies that the consumer selects goods based【C6】______ totally objective criteria, such【C7】______size, weight, price, and so on.
    "Emotional" motives imply the selection of goods【C8】______ to personal or subjective criteria — the desire 【C9】______ individuality, pride, fear, affection or status.
    The assumption underlying this distinction is【C10】______subjective or emotional criteria do not maximize utility or satisfaction.【C11】______, it is reasonable to assume that consumers always attempt to select alternatives that,【C12】______ their view, serve to maximize satisfaction. Obviously, the assessment of satisfaction is a very personal process, based【C13】______ the individual’s own needs as【C14】______ as on past behavioral, social, and learning experiences. What may appear【C15】______ irrational to an outside observer may be perfectly rational【C16】______ the context of the consumer’s own psychological field. For example, a product purchased to enhance one’s self-image (such as a fragrance) is a perfectly rational form of consumer behavior. 【C17】______ behavior did not appear rational to the person who undertakes it【C18】______ the time that it is undertaken, obviously he or she would not do it.【C19】______ the distinction between rational and emotional motives does not appear to be warranted.
    Some researchers go so far【C20】______ to suggest that emphasis on "needs" obscures the rational, or conscious, nature of most consumer motivation. They claim that consumers act consciously to maximize their gains and minimize their losses; that they act not from subconscious drives but from rational preferences, or what they perceive to be in their own best interests.
