Regulatory Congruence Effects in Two-Sided Advertising

Two experiments test regulatory congruence in two-sided messages. Study 1 shows a congruence effect in two-sided messages only for promotion focused individuals, which was mediated by processing fluency. The second experiment clarifies the absence of a congruence effect found for prevention focused individuals, by demonstrating the role of processing depth.
