PurposeThis study aims to explore young German consumer perspectives of rental fashion platforms by studying their perceived benefits, potential barriers as well as preferred clothing categories to rent from. This “new” kind of shopping has not yet found great success among young German adults, although there is a substantial margin of growth for this generation.Design/methodology/approachThis qualitative study was conducted through 24 in-depth semi-structured interviews with young female and male German consumers out of Gen Y and Z. The analysis of the data was supported by the software NVivo.FindingsResults indicate that young German consumers value renting clothes for occasions, to frequently change up their wardrobe, out of sustainability aspects and because of efficiency and convenience reasons. However, an entry barrier to the use of rental platforms still persists through a lack of awareness and information, as well as price and high demand issues.Research limitations/implicationsAs the interview’s focus group was set to young German consumers, a generalization of the findings to consumers from other countries or out of other generations might be limited.Practical implicationsManagers first need to lower the currently existing entry barrier that prevents many consumers from renting fashion online by raising their awareness and providing them with sufficient information about the platform’s processes as well as their terms and conditions.Originality/valueThis research intends to better understand young German consumers’ attitude toward rental fashion platforms and why renting fashion has not yet achieved more success among them.The results first give managers helpful insights for implementing successful marketing strategies by focusing on spreading awareness among young German adults to stem current entry barriers. Second, these results serve as a basis for future quantitative research that deepens the understanding of the correlation of current findings with other variables (e.g. age, the importance of material possessions in consumers’ lives).
本研究旨在通过研究德国年轻消费者对租赁时尚平台的感知利益、潜在障碍以及偏好的服装类别,探索他们的视角。这种“新”购物方式尚未在德国年轻人中取得巨大成功,尽管这一代人有很大的增长空间。本定性研究通过对德国Y世代和z世代的年轻男女消费者进行24次深入的半结构化访谈进行,数据分析由NVivo软件支持。调查结果显示,年轻的德国消费者出于可持续性、效率和方便的考虑,重视在某些场合租用衣服,以便经常更换衣橱。然而,由于缺乏意识和信息,以及价格和高需求问题,使用租赁平台的进入障碍仍然存在。研究的局限性/意义由于访谈的焦点小组是针对年轻的德国消费者,因此将调查结果推广到其他国家或其他世代的消费者可能是有限的。实际意义管理人员首先需要降低目前阻碍许多消费者在线租赁时装的进入门槛,提高他们的意识,并向他们提供有关平台流程及其条款和条件的充分信息。独创性/价值本研究旨在更好地了解德国年轻消费者对时尚租赁平台的态度,以及为什么时尚租赁尚未在他们中取得更大的成功。研究结果首先为管理者提供了有用的见解,帮助他们通过在年轻的德国成年人中传播意识来实施成功的营销策略,以阻止目前的进入壁垒。其次,这些结果可以作为未来定量研究的基础,从而加深对当前研究结果与其他变量(例如年龄、物质财富在消费者生活中的重要性)之间相关性的理解。

PurposeThe pandemic has enhanced the global phenomenon of disinformation. This paper aims to study the false news concerning COVID-19, spread through social media in Spain, by using the LatamChequea database for a duration from 01/22/2020, when the first false information has been detected, up to 03/09/2021.Design/methodology/approachA quantitative analysis has been conducted with regard to the correlation between fake news stories and the pandemic state, the motive to share them, their dissemination in other countries and the effectiveness of fact checking. This study is complemented by a qualitative method: a focus group conducted with representatives of different groups within the society.FindingsFake news has been primarily disseminated through several social networks at the same time, with two peaks taking place in over a half of the said false stories. The first took place from March to April of 2020 during complete lockdown, and we were informed of prevention measures, the country’s situation and the origin of the virus, whereas the second was related to news revolving around the coming vaccines, which occurred between October and November. The audience tends to neither cross-check the information received nor report fake news to competent authorities, and fact-checking methods fail to stop their spread. Further awareness and digital literacy campaigns are thus required in addition to more involvement from governments and technological platforms.Research limitations/implicationsThe main limitation of the research is the fact that it was only possible to conduct a focus group of five individuals who do not belong to generation Z due to the restrictions imposed by the pandemic, although a clear contribution to the analysis of the impact of fake news on social networks during the COVID-19 pandemic in Spain can be seen from the privileged experiences in each of the fields of work that were identified. In this sense, the results of the study are not generalizable to a larger population. On the other hand, and with a view to future research, it would be advisable to carry out a more specific study of how fake news affects generation Z.Originality/valueThis research is original in nature, and the findings of this study are valuable for business practitioners and scholars, brand marketers, social media platform owners, opinion leaders and policymakers.
目的:疫情加剧了全球传播虚假信息的现象。本文旨在利用LatamChequea数据库,从2020年1月22日第一次发现虚假信息开始,到2021年3月9日止,研究在西班牙社交媒体上传播的关于COVID-19的虚假新闻。设计/方法/方法对假新闻报道与大流行状态之间的相关性、分享假新闻的动机、假新闻在其他国家的传播以及事实核查的有效性进行了定量分析。这项研究还辅以一种定性方法:与社会中不同群体的代表进行焦点小组讨论。假新闻主要通过几个社交网络同时传播,超过一半的假新闻出现了两个高峰。第一次发生在2020年3月至4月全面封锁期间,我们了解了预防措施、国家情况和病毒来源,第二次发生在10月至11月期间,与即将推出的疫苗有关。受众既不会对所接收的信息进行反复核实,也不会向主管部门举报虚假新闻,事实核查方法也无法阻止虚假新闻的传播。因此,除了政府和技术平台的更多参与外,还需要进一步开展提高认识和数字扫盲运动。研究局限性/ implicationsThe研究的主要局限是,它才可能进行焦点小组五个人不属于Z一代由于限制的大流行,虽然一个明确的贡献分析社交网络假新闻的影响COVID-19大流行期间在西班牙可以看到这一特殊的经历在每个领域的工作被识别。从这个意义上说,这项研究的结果不能推广到更大的人群。另一方面,针对未来的研究,更具体地研究假新闻对z世代的影响是可取的。独创性/价值。本研究具有原创性,研究结果对商业从业者和学者、品牌营销人员、社交媒体平台所有者、意见领袖和政策制定者都有价值。

PurposeGreen consumption behaviour (GCB) has been advocated to mitigate the environmental consequences of traditional consumption patterns. Besides the current circumstances, Generation Z college students are a sizable consumer group who are likely to be concerned about the future. Thus, this study aims to examine the factors affecting the college students’ GCB and the moderating effect of government support to provide new evidence from college students in China.Design/methodology/approachIn addition to environmental knowledge and social media influence as the variables, government support was used as a moderator to develop the extended theory of planned behaviour (TPB) model. Purposive sampling was used to obtain 328 valid responses from Chinese college students. The collected data were analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling.FindingsThe findings indicated that subjective norms, perceived behavioural control, environmental knowledge and social media influence substantially affect students’ GCB. Notably, the moderation analysis suggested that government support greatly strengthens the relationship between subjective norms and social media influence on the GCB of Chinese college students.Practical implicationsThe study provides several significant practical implications as the findings could be referred by stakeholders, such as government and businesses entities, in formulating policies and strategies to encourage the consumers’ GCB in mitigating ecological consequences.Originality/valueThe extended TPB model that integrated environmental knowledge and social media influence with the government support as the moderator contributes to the extant literature with the evidence derived from Generation Z in China.
目的绿色消费行为(GCB)一直被提倡以减轻传统消费模式对环境的影响。除了目前的情况,Z世代大学生是一个相当大的消费群体,他们可能会对未来感到担忧。因此,本研究旨在考察大学生GCB的影响因素以及政府支持的调节作用,以提供来自中国大学生的新证据。设计/方法/方法除了环境知识和社交媒体影响作为变量外,政府支持还被用作发展计划行为扩展理论(TPB)模型的调节因素。采用目的抽样的方法,从中国大学生中获得328份有效问卷。利用偏最小二乘结构方程模型对收集到的数据进行分析。研究结果表明,主观规范、感知行为控制、环境知识和社交媒体影响对学生的GCB有显著影响。值得注意的是,适度分析表明,政府支持极大地强化了主观规范与社交媒体影响对中国大学生GCB的关系。实际意义这项研究提供了一些重要的实际意义,因为研究结果可以为利益相关者(如政府和商业实体)制定政策和战略,以鼓励消费者的绿色商业行为减轻生态后果提供参考。扩展的TPB模型整合了环境知识和社会媒体影响,并以政府支持为调节因素,对现有文献的贡献来自中国Z世代的证据。

PurposeThis study aims to explore the relationship between social commerce purchase intention and consumer psychological factors (i.e. resilience, vulnerability and personality traits) during the COVID-19 pandemic.Design/methodology/approachDrawing on social cognitive theory (SCT), an econometrical behavioral model was developed to explore the key determinants of online purchase behavior of 303 students in Greece. The research data were collected with a two-wave online survey (pre- and during the pandemic) which was distributed randomly to students in Generation Z.FindingsA series of regression analyses revealed a positive effect of openness and a negative impact of extraversion and neuroticism on internet, Instagram and Facebook purchases during the pandemic. Findings suggest that loneliness serves as a moderator, while resilience and vulnerability have a positive effect on social media purchase behavior.Practical implicationsThis study provides insights and implications for social commerce marketers and sheds light on the determinants of online purchase intentions of young consumers during the COVID-19 pandemic.Originality/valueElaborating on SCT, this study provides novel insights into young consumers’ internet use and online purchase behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic (i.e. longitudinal approach), by focusing on consumer vulnerability and resilience while also embedding personality traits and mental health aspects (i.e. loneliness levels during the pandemic).
目的本研究旨在探讨新冠肺炎大流行期间社交商务购买意愿与消费者心理因素(韧性、脆弱性和人格特质)的关系。设计/方法/方法利用社会认知理论(SCT),建立了一个计量经济学行为模型,以探讨303名希腊学生在线购买行为的关键决定因素。研究数据是通过两波在线调查(大流行前和期间)收集的,随机分配给z世代的学生。一系列回归分析显示,在大流行期间,开放性对互联网、Instagram和Facebook的购买有积极影响,外向性和神经质有消极影响。研究结果表明,孤独感对社交媒体购买行为起调节作用,而适应力和脆弱性对社交媒体购买行为有积极影响。本研究为社交商务营销人员提供了见解和启示,并揭示了COVID-19大流行期间年轻消费者在线购买意愿的决定因素。独创性/价值本研究以SCT为基础,通过关注消费者的脆弱性和弹性,同时嵌入个性特征和心理健康方面(即大流行期间的孤独感水平),为2019冠状病毒病大流行期间年轻消费者的互联网使用和在线购买行为(即纵向方法)提供了新的见解。

Parents’ mental state communication and children’s consumer behavior in the USA 美国父母心理沟通与儿童消费行为
IF 3 Q2 BUSINESS Pub Date : 2023-03-02 DOI: 10.1108/yc-05-2022-1521
Eunjoo Choi, Matthew A. Lapierre
PurposePrevious research has shown that children’s ability to understand mental states is related to their consumer development, yet it is unknown how parents can aid in this process. One possible way that parents may help is using mental state communication (i.e. communication that focuses on beliefs/intention to explain behavior by others). This study aims to examine whether this kind of communication is linked to children’s purchase requests through two potential mediators – active mediation and child socio-cognitive skills (i.e. Theory of Mind).Design/methodology/approachThis study used a survey of 420 American mothers with children between the ages of 3 and 7. Respondents were given 12 scenarios describing typical parent–child interactions focused on discussing mental states and were asked how they would respond. Then, respondents were asked about demographic information, parenting style, mediation style, child socio-cognitive skills and child purchase requests.FindingsResults showed both a direct and indirect negative association between parents’ mental state communication and children’s purchase requests via active advertising mediation. Contrary to expectations, active mediation was negatively associated with mental state communication and positively linked to child purchase requests. Children’s socio-cognitive skills were not associated with either parents’ mental state communication or children’s purchase requests.Originality/valueTo the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first known study that has examined mental state communication of parents as a potential predictor in shaping children’s purchase requests and found that it was negatively associated with it.
先前的研究表明,儿童理解心理状态的能力与他们的消费发展有关,但尚不清楚父母如何在这一过程中提供帮助。父母可能提供帮助的一种方法是使用精神状态沟通(即专注于解释他人行为的信念/意图的沟通)。本研究旨在通过主动中介和儿童社会认知技能(即心理理论)两种潜在的中介来考察这种沟通是否与儿童的购买请求有关。设计/方法/方法这项研究对420名美国母亲进行了调查,她们的孩子年龄在3到7岁之间。受访者给出了12个场景,描述了典型的亲子互动,重点是讨论心理状态,并被问及他们会如何回应。然后,调查对象被问及人口统计信息、父母教养方式、调解方式、儿童社会认知技能和儿童购买请求。结果表明,父母的心理状态沟通与儿童通过主动广告中介的购买需求之间存在直接和间接的负相关关系。与预期相反,积极调解与心理状态沟通负相关,与儿童购买请求正相关。儿童的社会认知技能与父母的心理状态沟通和儿童的购买要求无关。原创性/价值据作者所知,这是第一个已知的研究,将父母的精神状态沟通作为影响孩子购买请求的潜在预测因素,并发现它与之呈负相关。

Purpose This investigation applied the Product Life Cycle (PLC) and Product Evolutionary Cycle (PEC) frameworks to the nicotine and tobacco market to predict the impact of television commercials for electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) on youth. Design/methodology/approach Surveys were administered over a three-year period to 417 alternative high school students from southern California who had never used e-cigarettes, cigarettes, or cigars at the baseline. Covariate-adjusted logistic regression causal mediation models were employed to test competing hypotheses from the PLC and PEC frameworks. Findings Results support a refined version of the PEC framework where e-cigarette commercials increase the odds of e-cigarette use, which leads to subsequent use of competing products including cigarettes and cigars. Originality Regulations in the United States that permit television commercials for e-cigarettes but restrict the promotion of cigarettes and cigars have created an opportunity to study product adoption among youth consumers when one product has a strategic marketing advantage. Practical implications This investigation demonstrates the utility of frameworks that conceptualize youth-oriented marketing as a two-part process in which potential customers are first convinced to adopt a behavior and then enticed to use a specific product to enact the behavior. Social implications Rising rates of nicotine and tobacco product use among youth may be partially attributable to e-cigarette commercials.
目的:本研究将产品生命周期(PLC)和产品进化周期(PEC)框架应用于尼古丁和烟草市场,以预测电子烟电视广告对青少年的影响。设计/方法/方法:对来自南加州的417名替代性高中学生进行了为期三年的调查,这些学生在基线时从未使用过电子烟、香烟或雪茄。采用协变量调整逻辑回归因果中介模型来检验PLC和PEC框架的竞争性假设。研究结果支持PEC框架的改进版本,其中电子烟广告增加了电子烟使用的几率,从而导致随后使用包括香烟和雪茄在内的竞争产品。独创性:美国的法规允许电子烟的电视广告,但限制香烟和雪茄的推广,这为研究一种产品在具有战略营销优势的情况下在年轻消费者中采用该产品创造了机会。实际意义:本调查展示了框架的效用,该框架将面向年轻人的营销概念化为两个部分的过程,在这个过程中,潜在客户首先被说服采取一种行为,然后被引诱使用特定的产品来制定这种行为。社会影响:青少年中尼古丁和烟草产品使用率的上升可能部分归因于电子烟广告。

Covariate-adjusted logistic regression causal mediation models were employed to test competing hypotheses from the PLC and PEC frameworks. Findings Results support a refined version of the PEC framework where e-cigarette commercials increase the odds of e-cigarette use, which leads to subsequent use of competing products including cigarettes and cigars. Originality Regulations in the United States that permit television commercials for e-cigarettes but restrict the promotion of cigarettes and cigars have created an opportunity to study product adoption among youth consumers when one product has a strategic marketing advantage.

PurposeThis study aims to propose increasing the number of dimensions around current intergenerational influence (IGI) construct and renaming it to intergenerational brand influence (IGBI). This research describes the development and validation of the items comprising the dimensions of this new construct.Design/methodology/approachThis study performed a literature review to identify potential dimensions for IGBI based on previous research about IGI. Analysis of items used to measure IGI was conducted to establish a set for each dimension. A structured, self-administered survey was used. Item reduction, measure validation and regression analysis were conducted to measure the predictive validity of the instrument. Moreover, three separate studies were conducted to develop and validate IGBI construct.FindingsIGBI quantifies the various interactions that contribute to intergenerational brand transfer. The interactions could be classified according to one of the five IGBI dimensions: communication, recommendation, observed behavior, good impression and co-shopping with parents.Practical implicationsIGBI recognizes the relevance of influence behaviors such as children observing their parents buy a brand, children participating in shopping and children attempting to develop a good impression through brand loyalty. The first two behaviors indicate the importance of brands advocating purchase behavior as a family activity. The measure of good impression suggests that consumers use brands to maintain family connections, which should be considered a pertinent brand strategy.Originality/valueThis study develops the aforementioned five IGBI dimensions that describe the interactions between parent–child consumers that result in brand transfer.
本研究旨在增加当前代际影响(IGI)结构的维度数量,并将其更名为代际品牌影响(IGBI)。本研究描述了构成这个新结构维度的项目的开发和验证。本研究在以往IGI研究的基础上进行了文献综述,以确定IGBI的潜在维度。对用于测量IGI的项目进行了分析,以建立每个维度的集合。采用了结构化的、自我管理的调查。通过项目缩减、测量验证和回归分析来衡量该工具的预测效度。此外,进行了三个独立的研究来开发和验证IGBI结构。发现sigbi量化了促成代际品牌转移的各种互动。这种互动可以根据IGBI的五个维度之一进行分类:沟通、推荐、观察行为、良好印象和与父母共同购物。实际意义sigbi认识到影响行为的相关性,如儿童观察父母购买品牌,儿童参与购物,儿童试图通过品牌忠诚度建立良好印象。前两种行为表明了品牌倡导购买行为作为家庭活动的重要性。良好印象的测量表明,消费者使用品牌是为了维持家庭关系,这应该被视为一种相关的品牌策略。原创性/价值本研究发展了上述五个IGBI维度,这些维度描述了导致品牌转移的亲子消费者之间的互动。

PurposeDisinformation has become a latent risk for online audiences, specifically for minors who are commonly exposed to a wide variety of online content at a time they are developing cognitively and emotionally. This paper aims to offer insight on minors’ perception and the tools used by this age group to verify the content to which they are exposed while online.Design/methodology/approachTwelve focus groups were held in Spain between April and June 2021 with a total of 62 participants aged 11–17. Besides age, sex and socioeconomic group were variables taken into consideration to select the participants. A script covering the intended questions was used to structure the discussion.FindingsResult analysis reveals that minors are excessively confident in their ability to identify false news and feel the need to share content with their online community as a means of participation in discussions or trending topics. Although WhatsApp family groups are seen as a source of misleading news, the study reveals that the family and traditional media (mainly television) act as sources of verification of fake news for minors. In general, minors opt for actions that require less initiative to contrast the content they consume on the internet.Originality/valueThis study produces new findings by further deepening the results of the first quantitative study on the relationship between minors and disinformation in Spain using qualitative method from conducting virtual focus groups.
虚假信息已经成为网络受众的潜在风险,特别是对于未成年人来说,他们通常在认知和情感发展的时候接触到各种各样的网络内容。本文旨在深入了解未成年人的看法和使用的工具,由这个年龄组来验证他们在网上暴露的内容。设计/方法/方法2021年4月至6月在西班牙举行了12个焦点小组,共有62名11-17岁的参与者。除了年龄之外,性别和社会经济群体也是选择参与者的考虑因素。一个涵盖预期问题的脚本被用来组织讨论。结果分析显示,未成年人对自己识别虚假新闻的能力过于自信,并且觉得有必要在网络社区分享内容,作为参与讨论或热门话题的一种手段。尽管WhatsApp家庭群被视为误导性新闻的来源,但研究显示,家庭和传统媒体(主要是电视)是未成年人假新闻的核实来源。一般来说,未成年人会选择不那么主动的行动来对比他们在互联网上消费的内容。原创性/价值本研究通过进一步深化西班牙未成年人与虚假信息之间关系的第一次定量研究的结果,通过进行虚拟焦点小组的定性方法,产生了新的发现。

PurposeThis study aims to investigate the influence of brand familiarity, consumer green consciousness (GC) and chronic regulatory focus on consumer attitudes, buying intentions and willingness to pay more for eco-friendly products in a comparison between eco-friendly and non-eco-friendly products among Generation Z consumers.Design/methodology/approachAn experiment with a between-subjects design was conducted with 151 Malaysian Generation Z consumers.FindingsWhen consumers are more familiar with an eco-friendly brand than a non-eco-friendly brand, their attitude toward, buying intention and willingness to pay more for eco-friendly products are significantly higher than for non-eco-friendly products. In contrast, such effects are not significant when consumers are more familiar with a non-eco-friendly brand than an eco-friendly brand. Hence, young consumers are more inclined to favor a familiar eco-friendly brand than a familiar non-eco-friendly one. Consumers with higher GC are willing to pay more than consumers with lower GC for products of a familiar eco-friendly brand. When consumers are less familiar with an eco-friendly brand, those with a higher chronic promotion focus (CPF) will have a more favorable attitude toward, and a higher intention to buy, eco-friendly products than those with a lower CPF.Practical implicationsAwareness of how these factors influence consumer purchase behavior can help retailers and marketers design and communicate specific messages to highlight their brand and product eco-friendliness in their marketing strategies. Doing so may increase familiarity with their brand and the demand for and purchase of their brand’s eco-friendly products.Originality/valueThis research explores the influence of an integrated model of brand familiarity, GC and CPF on consumer purchase behavior in the comparison between eco-friendly and non-eco-friendly products. This has not been clearly examined in previous research.
本研究旨在探讨品牌熟悉度、消费者绿色意识(GC)和长期监管重点对Z世代消费者对环保产品的态度、购买意愿和支付意愿的影响,并对环保和非环保产品进行比较。设计/方法/方法对151名马来西亚Z世代消费者进行了受试者间设计的实验。当消费者对环保品牌的熟悉程度高于非环保品牌时,他们对环保产品的态度、购买意愿和支付意愿明显高于非环保产品。相反,当消费者对非环保品牌的熟悉程度超过对环保品牌的熟悉程度时,这种影响并不显著。因此,年轻消费者更倾向于选择熟悉的环保品牌,而不是熟悉的非环保品牌。与低GC的消费者相比,高GC的消费者愿意为熟悉的环保品牌的产品支付更多的费用。当消费者对环保品牌的熟悉程度较低时,CPF较高的消费者对环保产品的态度和购买意愿比CPF较低的消费者更有利。意识到这些因素如何影响消费者的购买行为可以帮助零售商和营销人员设计和传达特定的信息,以突出他们的品牌和产品的环保在他们的营销策略。这样做可能会增加对他们品牌的熟悉程度,以及对他们品牌环保产品的需求和购买。原创性/价值本研究在比较环保与非环保产品时,探讨品牌熟悉度、GC与CPF的整合模型对消费者购买行为的影响。这在以前的研究中还没有得到明确的检验。

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to examine how children and young adults form attitudes toward food products in unbranded gaming mobile applications and the degree to which product category attitudes can generate responses to brands in the category through the generalization process.Design/methodology/approachTwo experiments exposed children and young adults to mobile games featuring food products in a between-subjects treatment versus control design to examine both affective responses and belief formation toward food brands within the category.FindingsIt was found that both children and young adults favored branded food items in the product category after playing with an unbranded mobile game assembling food products. Young adults also developed specific beliefs about nonrepresented brands in the category, which were found to be stronger under high involvement. Parents and public policymakers must be vigilant in controlling access to food-related games, even when they are not commercial in nature because of the attitudes and beliefs formed in unbranded games.Originality/valueThis research demonstrates that attitudes and beliefs around food brands can be formed through unbranded game play when children and young adults generalize attitudes. Because of the emphasis on “advergames,” no studies have examined the impact of unbranded games on children and young adults through the generalization process.
本研究的目的是研究儿童和年轻人如何在无品牌游戏手机应用中形成对食品的态度,以及产品类别的态度在多大程度上能够通过泛化过程产生对该类别品牌的反应。设计/方法/方法:两个实验将儿童和年轻人置于以食品为特色的手机游戏中,采用受试者间处理与对照设计,以检验对类别内食品品牌的情感反应和信念形成。研究发现,儿童和年轻人在玩过一款组装食品的无品牌手机游戏后,都更喜欢产品类别中的品牌食品。年轻人还对该类别中没有代表的品牌形成了特定的信念,在高度参与的情况下,这种信念会更强。家长和公共政策制定者必须保持警惕,控制与食物相关的游戏的访问,即使它们本质上不是商业的,因为在非品牌游戏中形成的态度和信念。原创性/价值本研究表明,儿童和年轻人对食品品牌的态度和信念可以通过非品牌游戏形成。由于对“广告游戏”的强调,没有研究通过泛化过程来检验非品牌游戏对儿童和年轻人的影响。
