Loving a Loser: Experiential Learning Increases the Desire For Non-Favorite Consumption Categories
People exhibit product subcategory loyalty, selecting options from their favorite subcategory while ignoring non-favorite subcategories. Three studies explore strategies for increasing appreciation through reorienting the experiential perspective. Training alters consumers’ experiential perceptive by providing a novel perspective that is goal-relevant, resulting in increased appreciation and consumption of non-favorite subcategories.
