Deceived Or Not Deceived: How Food Consumers Perceive Deception
This research shows how deceptive marketing communication can be determined empirically through changed consumer expectations. It reveals that consumers are only able to perceive a deception after product trial for experience and not for credence attributes. Unexpectedly, the ability to detect deception is independent of education, nutrition- and persuasion knowledge.
