Vi har med hjälp av intervjuer och enkäter undersökt vilka faktorer som ligger till grund för föräldrars val av förskola. Idag kan föräldrar göra ett rationellt val genom att själva undersöka, besöka och ta reda på vilken förskola som passar dem och deras barn bäst. Valmöjligheterna är många och beslutet är stort.

Människor verkar generellt handla och uppträda på sätt som ger fördelar till dem själva och de grupper de är medlemmar i. Fördelarna gäller resurser, status, prestige men också socialt fördelaktigt beteende. Beaupré och Hess (2003) fann att människor ansåg medlemmar ur sin egna etniska grupp vara gladare än människor från andra etniska grupper. För att undersöka om icke socialt sammansatta grupper skulle attribuera gladare ansiktsuttryck till den egna gruppen, innegruppen, framför andra grupper, utegrupper, replikerades studien i minimala grupper. Det visade sig att innegruppen oftare favoriserades med glada ansiktsuttryck medan utegruppen oftare attribuerades neutrala ansiktsuttryck..

The purpose of this essay was to examine the packaging design´s communications related to the colloquially brand's symbolic capital and how they became meaningful through experience and perceptions that led to the identification processes in the consumer society.
