Abstract

This research is concerned with comparisons of women's apparel retail store image spaces. The basic question being asked is whether or not women from five different life cycle groups construct comparable image spaces as representations of the marketplace. A space fitting methodology using the basic work of Schonemann and Carroll (1970) with modifications by Lingoes (1973) is employed.
