题目: Mismatches in Choices for Self Versus Others

摘要: Abstract

Popular advice abounds on whether consumers ought to choose quality or quantity, and marketing appeals exist on both sides, highlighting either the quality of a brand’s products or the higher quantity contained within a package (e.g., contains 30% more). We examine why and when whom a consumer is choosing for (oneself vs. another person) affects quality versus quantity preference. Nine studies demonstrate when and why consumers are more likely to choose quantity over quality when choosing for themselves versus others. We find mediation and moderation evidence indicating that this preference asymmetry in choosing for self versus others arises because of social risk—in terms of heightened concerns associated with not matching the preferences of a recipient and concerns with potential embarrassment for choosing a “cheap” quantity option

In a separate line of research, we find that gift givers and gift receivers often make tradeoffs between desirability and feasibility. Focusing on the asymmetric distance from a gift that exists within giver-receiver dyads, we propose that, unlike receivers, givers construe gifts abstractly and therefore weight desirability attributes more than feasibility attributes.
