Relative National Identification, Oneness and Product Evaluations: a Conceptual Framework

Drawing on self-identity theory and Oneness, we propose a conceptual framework that highlights the role of national identification in product evaluation. Relative National Identification (RNI) – residual identification with one’s country-of-birth adjusted for newly acquired identification with country-of-residence- is examined to study differences in consumer product evaluations.
