Starting out as a state-run enterprise, TSC has sought to diversify its operations from its core salt business to comply with uninhibited private, international competition.
Taiwan Salt is now divided into Seawater Chemistry, Biotech, Info-Tech, and Distribution business units based on their respective unique product lines and directions of future development. In terms of Biotech, Taiwan Salt has applied medical-grade collagen to its medical/cosmetics business and turned it into a major revenue source. Therefore, it will be necessary to study consumers¡¦ behavior in buying cosmetics in order to promote and sell this product.
This research examined consumers¡¦ sex, age, education, occupation, and monthly income and investigated how differences in these factors and in post-purchase satisfaction and loyalty would lead to significant differences in suggestions and perception. Customers of TSC¡¦s Kaohsiung sales office were, based on convenient sampling, taken as the subjects that received questionnaire survey.

Previous issue date: 2007-02-27 / Food advertising and it effect on the food choices has been the target of frequent debates,
being attributed to a great part of the responsibility for the problems of bad feeding of the
population. Such situation has led to government initiatives with the aim to discipline the food
advertising, mainly those destined to children. These initiatives can have important
consequences on the promotion strategies of the food sector. The present work had as main
objective to investigate the frequency and content of the food commercials on television,
considering the strategies adopted in relation to the characteristics of the message, the food,
the consumer and the appeals, as well as the execution or not of ethical norms of advertising.
Therefore, the programming of three open TV channels was recorded during the morning,
afternoon and night at preestablished schedules and then used in the content analysis. The
results pointed to the prevalence of food commercials in the morning mainly for children
advertising mostly products rich in sugar and fat. It was verified that the messages are
fundamentally affectionate, with emphasis on the flavor of the food and the pleasure with
little reference to the nutritional aspects and health. Great part of the commercials also
presented debatable elements regarding to the ethics. At the end of the work, considerations
are made about the need of the analysis of the food choice in a wider context, considering the
advertising just one of the influence variables. It is considered that only joint actions of the
public and private sector are capable to aid in the promotion of healthier food habits. / A propaganda de alimentos e sua influência nas escolhas alimentares tem
sido alvo de discussões freqüentes, sendo atribuída a ela grande parte da
responsabilidade pelos problemas de má alimentação da população. Tal situação tem levado a
iniciativas governamentais que visam disciplinar as propagandas de alimentos,
principalmente aquelas destinadas ao público infantil. Essas iniciativas podem trazer
conseqüências importantes para as ações promocionais do setor alimentício. Este trabalho
teve como principal objetivo investigar a freqüência e o conteúdo de comerciais de alimentos
veiculados na televisão, considerando as estratégias adotadas em relação às características da
mensagem, do alimento, do consumidor e dos apelos, bem como o cumprimento ou não de
normas éticas da publicidade. Para tanto, foram gravadas as programações de três emissoras
de canal aberto nos períodos da manhã, tarde e noite em horários pré-estabelecidos, sendo
utilizado como método a análise de conteúdo. Os resultados apontaram a prevalência de
comerciais de alimentos no período da manhã, voltados principalmente ao público infantil,
sendo a maioria destes produtos ricos em açúcares e gorduras. Constatou-se que as mensagens
são fundamentalmente afetivas, com ênfase no sabor dos alimentos e no prazer, havendo
pouca referência aos aspectos nutricionais e de saúde.Grande parte dos comerciais também
apresentou elementos discutíveis quanto à questão ética. Ao final do trabalho, são feitas
considerações sobre a necessidade da análise da escolha alimentar dentro de um contexto mais
amplo, sendo a propaganda apenas uma das variáveis de influência. Considera-se que somente
ações conjuntas, de ordem pública e privada, são capazes de auxiliar na promoção de hábitos
alimentares mais saudáveis.

DETERMINAÇÃO DAS CARACTERÍSTICAS DE PREFERÊNCIA DOS ALUNOS NA ESCOLHA DE UMA INSTITUIÇÃO DE ENSINO SUPERIOR PRIVADA NA CIDADE DE SANTA MARIA RS / The determination of the characteristics on the students preference in the choice of a private institution of higher learningIbdaiwi, Thiago Kader Rajeh 29 June 2009 (has links)
Understanding consumers and the consuming process supply a series of benefits. Among these benefits are the support to managers in their decisions, the supply of a knowledge basis in which marketing researchers are able to analyze
consumers, the support to legislators and controllers in the creation of laws and regulations regarding to the goods and service purchase and the support to the
consumer in their best decision making. Besides that, the study which involves the consumer s behaviour can help us to understand the factors of the social science which influence the human s behaviour. The importance of understanding the consumer is found in the marketing definition as a human activity directed to supply needs and desires through the trade s process. In fact, the consumer s sovereignty principle is the central point in which the marketing area is based on. According to this concept, the consumer is supposed to be in the center of
marketing efforts. The general knowledge of the consumer s behaviour has also a personal value. It is possible to help people to become the best consumers through the identification of factors which influence their own consuming activities, among them it can be mentioned the choice private institution of higher learning. / Compreender os consumidores e o processo de consumo proporciona uma série de benefícios. Entre eles estão: o auxílio aos gerentes em suas tomadas de decisões, o fornecimento de uma base de conhecimentos a partir dos quais
pesquisadores de marketing podem analisar os consumidores, o apoio aos legisladores e controladores na criação de leis e regulamentos referentes à compra de mercadorias e serviços e o auxílio ao consumidor na tomada de melhores decisões de compra. Além disso, o estudo que envolve o comportamento dos consumidores pode auxiliar a compreender os fatores da
ciência social que influenciam o comportamento humano. A importância de se compreender o consumidor é encontrada na definição de marketing como uma atividade humana direcionada a satisfazer necessidades e desejos por meio de
processos de troca. Na verdade, o princípio de soberania do consumidor é o ponto central no qual se baseia a área de marketing. De acordo com esse conceito, o consumidor deve estar no centro dos esforços de marketing. O conhecimento geral do comportamento do consumidor também tem um valor
pessoal. É possível ajudar as pessoas a se tornar melhores consumidores por meio da identificação de fatores que influenciam suas próprias atividades de consumo, entre elas pode-se citar a escolha de uma instituição de ensino
superior privada.

Previous issue date: 2007-05-10 / Information Technology (IT) starts to play an important role in the day-by-day, changing the
way the cattlemen manage their properties. IT affects business management as it allows for
search, access, storage and dissemination of information, improving the decision-making
process. Besides softwares and agribusiness websites, IT includes electronic devices for
storage of sanitary, nutricional and genetic information; television channels and
telecommunications structure. This research aimed to study the use and the diffusion of IT in
the beef cattle breeding, from the analysis of the factors that have influenced its adoption; to
describe resources, procedures and necessary actions for IT operation; to segment (classify)
rural enterprises by their technological level; and to elaborate suggestions to intensify the IT
uses in the cattle breeding business. The research was performed in two stages, quantitative
and qualitative. In the first stage, a survey with producers was performed. Information
concerning the different technologies adopted and the attitudes taken with IT, enabled to
identify the level of innovativeness of producers. It was possible to classify them by the
similarities of the technological position. The second stage analyzed experiences, opinions
and perspectives regarding the technology integrated to the productive system. Two properties
were analyzed by each category, totalizing ten case studies, by personal interviews. The
results indicated the reasons of the adoption or rejection of a certain IT by the producers,
allowing for the identification of the reasons why some producers have adopted it more
quickly than others. It was possible to understand the modifications in the rural organization
due to IT adoption, as, for example, improvement in managerial skills. Altogether, the
processes have been improved and became easier, with positive consequences in several
areas, including human resources and the enterprise s image in the market. / A Tecnologia da informação (TI) começa a ganhar espaço no dia-a-dia do produtor, mudando a
maneira como os pecuaristas administram suas propriedades. A TI afeta a gestão do negócio, ao
facilitar a busca, o acesso, o armazenamento e a disseminação de informações, favorecendo a
tomada de decisão. Além dos softwares e portais sobre o agronegócio, a TI inclui dispositivos
eletrônicos para armazenamento de informações sanitárias, nutricionais e genéticas; canais de
televisão e estrutura de telecomunicações. O objetivo desse trabalho foi estudar o uso e a
difusão da TI na pecuária de corte, a partir de fatores que influenciaram a adoção; descrever
recursos, procedimentos e ações necessárias para o funcionamento da mesma; segmentar os
empreendimentos rurais a partir do nível tecnológico; e elaborar propostas para intensificar o
uso da TI na atividade pecuária. A pesquisa foi realizada em duas fases: uma quantitativa e
outra qualitativa. Na primeira, foi realizado um levantamento do tipo survey com produtores,
buscando informações acerca das diferentes tecnologias adotadas e das atitudes em relação às
mesmas, possibilitando identificar o grau de inovatividade dos produtores e agrupá-los pela
semelhança da postura tecnológica. A segunda analisou experiências, opiniões e perspectivas a
respeito da tecnologia integrada ao sistema produtivo de duas propriedades em cada categoria,
totalizando dez estudos de caso, a partir de entrevistas pessoais. Os resultados proporcionaram
entendimento sobre os motivos da adoção ou rejeição de uma determinada TI pelos produtores,
permitindo identificar as razões para alguns produtores adotarem mais rapidamente que outros.
Foi possível entender as alterações ocorridas na organização rural por ocasião da implantação
dessas tecnologias, observando-se, por exemplo, um avanço nas práticas gerenciais a partir da
adoção e uso da TI. De um modo geral, os processos foram aprimorados e facilitados, com
reflexos positivos em várias áreas da propriedade, incluindo recursos humanos e a imagem do
empreendimento no mercado.
