The Destigmatizing Role of Cause Marketing (Cm) Products

In this research, we investigate the destigmatizing role of cause marketing (CM) products, particularly for materialists. We demonstrate that compared to other forms of prosocial behaviors such as donation, materialists versus non-materialists perceive CM products as instrumental to destigmatizing negative accusations related to materialism when purchasing luxury products.
