| Abstract: | In the paper, behaviour and determinants of the behaviour of small group (here as: gr./grs.) brand community (here as: s-g-b-comm./s-g-b-comms.) participants is investigated. A s-g-b-comm. is a friendship group of consumers with a shared enthusiasm for the brand and a well-developed social identity. A comprehensive model is proposed based on a broadening and deepening of the theory of planned behaviour to incorporate social intentions, three aspects of social identity, anticipated positive and negative emotions as to achieving / failing to achieve g. participation goals, and desire as a transformative mechanism translating reasons etc. To test the proposed theoretical framework, used is a sample of 154 members of Harley-Davidson Motorcycle s-g-b-comms. and another sample of 255 members of motorcycle riding grs. not organized around specific brands. |
