are summarized using mean and standard deviation. The specific issues looked at included lubricant functions used by marketers, factors useful in marketing lubricants, the Big Five-Personality Scale (BPS) and positioning strategies.
The findings are that the factors studied are relied on by marketers of lubricants.
