2-P: How Mortality Salience Impacts Consumers' Preference For Brands
We demonstrate in field and lab studies that mortality salience can dampen consumers’ preference for brands with exciting personalities but not for those with other brand personalities (e.g., sincerity). We explore potential mechanisms underlying this phenomenon. Our findings add to terror management and brand personality theories and offer managerial insights.
