In the same light, there is a need to study customer engagement on luxury brands, as they require specific communication strategies. Several motivations are proved to influence engagement on social media, but it is still needed further research. Also, customer engagement has several outcomes, including brand attachment and brand loyalty. This study aimed to measure the influence of motivations of entertainment, personal identity, integration and social interaction, and empowerment on the different stages of engagement provided by the COBRA typology and to measure the influence of those engagement activities on brand attachment and brand loyalty. To test the model and the hypotheses, a quantitative methodology was developed based on scales tested in the literature, whose survey was administered online and obtained 434 valid answers. Data were descriptively analysed, and a structural equation modelling analysis was conducted to first assess the model fit to the data and to evaluate the quality of the scales, and secondly to test the cause-effect relationships established in the hypotheses. Of the 12 hypotheses, 8 were confirmed. The main theoretical contributions relate to greater understanding about the motivations that drive engagement on social media regarding luxury brands, with focus on Integration and Social Interaction being the motivation that has the higher explaining capacity of both Consumption and Participation stages, and the motivation of Personal Identity not influencing positively any stage. Also, Consumption and Participation show positive and statistically significant relationships with Brand Attachment and Brand Loyalty. Regarding practical contributions, marketers can use this information and adapt the criteria of digital content and strategic planning to be included in their marketing strategies, based on the motivations that generate more engagement, and consequently fostering customer engagement on their social media and increasing Brand Loyalty.Silva, JoaquimCasais, Beatriz Graça LuzUniversidade do MinhoGonçalves, Ana Sofia Ferreira20212021-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/1822/76177eng202779378info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-21T12:04:34Zoai:repositorium.sdum.uminho.pt:1822/76177Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:54:52.564424Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
