Cet article introduit une méthode de mesure individuelle du capital marque fondée sur les préférences et les choix du consommateur. Prenant appui sur les travaux de Park et Srinivasan, l'auteur propose deux améliorations, l'une portant sur le cadre conceptuel, l'autre sur la méthode de mesure employée. Une expérimentation, confrontant des données de laboratoire et de panels sur 32 marques différentes, indique une meilleure validité interne et externe de la méthode révisée. Le construit de capital marque corrigé se révèle effectivement plus fortement corrélé à d'autres indicateurs de la force de la marque, tels que la part de marché, la distribution numérique et la distribution valeur. Enfin, le modèle de prévision, élaboré à partir du construit, conduit à une bonne estimation des parts de choix, témoignant de la validité prédictive de la méthode. Certaines limites qui forment autant de pistes de recherche sont soulignées: l'article se positionne à un stade exploratoire et certains des résultats rapportés nécessitent un approfondissement confirmatoire.
