Abstract

Product information, such as country-of-origin (COO), often influences consumer choice. This research explores how valence of COO influences the magnitude of the compromise and attraction effects. The results of four experiments demonstrate that when a product’s COO denotes a negative image, the compromise and attraction effects decrease. The analysis also reveals asymmetric change of magnitude in the compromise and attraction effects.
