Abstract
It has proven difficult to define the concept of market mavens in a non-circular and meaningful manner. By contrast to behavioral models, it is here re-conceptualized as essentially relying on expert knowledge. The model builds on special skills in comprehension and makes self-reflectiveness in consumer knowledge the key defining criterion.
