During the dot com era the word 'personalisation' was a hot buzzword. With the fall of the dot com companies the topic has lost momentum. As the killer application for UMTS or the mobile internet has yet to be identified, the concept of Multi-Dimensional-Personalisation (MDP) could be a candidate. Using this approach, a recommendation of mobile advertisement or marketing (i.e., recommendations or notifications), online content, as well as offline events, can be offered to the user based on their known interests and current location. Instead of having to request or pull this information, the new service concept would proactively provide the information and services – with the consequence that the right information or service could therefore be offered at the right place, at the right time. The growing availability of "Location-based Services“ for mobile phones is a new target for the use of personalisation. "Location-based Services“ are information, for example, about restaurants, hotels or shopping malls with offers which are in close range/short distance to the user. The lack of acceptance for such services in the past is based on the fact that early implementations required the user to pull the information from the service provider. A more promising approach is to actively push information to the user. This information must be from interest to the user and has to reach the user at the right time and at the right place. This raises new requirements on personalisation which will go far beyond present requirements. It will reach out from personalisation based only on the interest of the user. Besides the interest, the enhanced personalisation has to cover the location and movement patterns, the usage and the past, present and future schedule of the user. This new personalisation paradigm has to protect the user's privacy so that an approach supporting anonymous recommendations through an extended 'Chinese Wall' will be described.

Titre de l'écran-titre (visionné le 31 juillet 2023) / Considéré comme un artefact de la société moderne, le téléphone intelligent a pris une place importante dans la vie des individus. La grande dépendance à l'égard des téléphones intelligents, pour la réalisation des différentes tâches du quotidien, a amené certains chercheurs à s'interroger sur la nature de cette relation et les comportements addictifs qui peuvent en découler. Par ailleurs, l'addiction au téléphone intelligent a été fortement associée à des problèmes psychopathologiques, comme l'anxiété et la dépression. Du point de vue du marketing, il semblerait que les spécialistes ont su comment tirer profit de la prévalence des téléphones intelligents afin de renforcer les pratiques du marketing mobile. Le téléphone intelligent a permis de joindre plus facilement les consommateurs à travers un contenu stimulant et interactif. Cependant, face à cette frénésie envers le marketing mobile, on a tendance à ignorer les impacts négatifs des pratiques parfois aberrantes du marketing mobile sur la réaction des consommateurs. Cette thèse s'inscrit dans le cadre de l'étude des facteurs responsables de l'émergence d'une addiction au téléphone intelligent et ses conséquences sur l'efficacité publicitaire et le comportement des consommateurs. Pour ce faire, la théorie de la dépendance aux médias (Media system dependency : MSD) (Ball-Rokeach et Defleur, 1976) a été adoptée comme cadre théorique général. Nous avons également combiné les postulats théoriques de la MSD à d'autres théories et modèles bien établis dans la littérature : la théorie de l'extension de soi (Belk, 1988), la théorie de l'attachement (Bowlby, 1977), la théorie de la réactivité aux cues (Carter et Tiffany, 1999), le modèle de la distorsion cognitive (Beck, 1963) et la théorie de la dissonance cognitive (Festinger, 1957). Un modèle a donc été proposé et testé. Ce modèle présente d'une part, l'extension de soi et l'attachement comme les déterminants de l'addiction au téléphone intelligent, et d'autre part, la réaction des consommateurs (attention et attitude), la surcharge d'informations, l'achat impulsif mobile et le comportement post-achat (dissonance post-achat et intention de retourner le produit) comme possibles conséquences directes et indirectes. Pour tester les relations de notre modèle conceptuel, une approche quantitative a été mise en place au moyen d'un questionnaire autoadministré. En utilisant la méthode statistique PLS-SEM, nous avons pu confirmer, ou infirmer, les hypothèses de notre cadre conceptuel. Les résultats ont montré que l'addiction au téléphone intelligent est déterminée par les concepts de l'extension de soi et l'attachement au téléphone intelligent. De plus, l'addiction au téléphone intelligent exerce une influence significativement positive et directe sur la réaction des consommateurs à la publicité mobile, au niveau de l'attention et de la formation de son attitude. L'addiction au téléphone intelligent influence également la perception de la surcharge d'informations reçues par les individus sur leur appareil. Finalement, nous avons pu confirmer une relation indirecte entre l'addiction au téléphone intelligent et la dissonance post-achat à travers l'achat impulsif mobile. Les résultats ont été discutés et les contributions théoriques, et managériales de cette thèse ont été mises en avant. / Considered as an artifact of modern society, smartphones have taken an important place in the lives of individuals. The great dependence on smartphones to undertake various daily tasks has led some researchers to question the nature of this relationship and the potential consequences of mobile addictive behaviors. Besides, smartphone addiction has been strongly associated with psychopathological problems such as anxiety and depression. From a marketing perspective, marketers seem to take advantage of the prevalence of smartphones to strengthen their mobile marketing strategies and practices. The smartphone has facilitated the access to consumers through engaging and interactive content. However, the frenzy around mobile marketing has obscured the negative impacts of deviant practices of mobile marketing on consumers' reactions. This thesis deals with the factors underlying the emergence of smartphone addiction and its consequences on advertising effectiveness and consumers' behaviors. The theory of media system dependency (MSD) (Ball-Rokeach and Defleur, 1976) has been adopted as a general theoretical framework. Furthermore, we have combined the theory of MSD with other well-established theories and models in the literature such as the self-extension theory (Belk, 1988), the attachment theory (Bowlby, 1977), the cue reactivity theory (Carter and Tiffany, 1999), the cognitive distortion model (Beck, 1963), and the cognitive dissonance theory (Festinger, 1957). Based on these theories, this thesis proposes a model depicting self-extension and attachment as the determinants of smartphone addiction. The latter is shown to have direct or indirect impacts on consumers' reactions (attention and attitude), information overload, mobile impulse buying and post-purchase behavior (post-purchase dissonance and intention to return the product). To test the relationships of our conceptual model, a quantitative approach is conducted using a self-administered questionnaire. Using the PLS-SEM statistical method, the hypotheses of our conceptual framework are tested. The results show that smartphone addiction is determined by consumers' smartphone self-extension and smartphone attachment. In addition, smartphone addiction is found to have a significantly positive and direct influence on consumers' reaction to mobile advertising, whether in terms of attention or attitude formation. In addition, smartphone addiction is found to influence consumers' perception of information overload, received on their devices. Finally, the results confirm an indirect relationship between smartphone addiction and post-purchase dissonance through mobile impulse buying. The results are discussed, and the theoretical and managerial contributions of this thesis are highlighted.
