Evaluation of Hybrid Products: the Role of Goal Activation

This study examines whether the same hybrid product will lead to the differing evaluations of the product depending on the category inference strategy employed when only one of the key focal goals that the hybrid product can satisfy is activated. Furthermore, this study explores whether evaluations of the hybrid product using single-category inference will reflect valuation and/or devaluation effects when the activated goal is one of key focal goals associated with the hybrid product.
