Perceived Store Brand’S Trustworthiness As Signals During Consumers’ Decision-Making: an Experimental Investigation
Today, consumers are exposed to an increasing amount of products and brands. The brands-as-signals-theory suggests that strong brands can reduce uncertainty arising from this decision complexity. Our results contribute to the understanding of this phenomenon by showing that store brand`s perceived trustworthiness also serves as uncertainty-reducing signal during consumer’s decision-making.
