Kubota (2010a; 2010b) defined brand relationship as an “identification with the specific brand by the consumer - the sense of bond to occur from there” and developed a scale to measure brand relationships. This paper attempts to validate this scale by re-examining it. In addition, the author developed simplified version of the scale consisting of a fewer number of question items.
