1J When the Bigger Is Not the Better: Backlash Effects of Before-And-After Advertising
This research explores the impact of the discrepancy shown in before and after weight loss appeals. We show that a large discrepancy can have negative effects on attitudes towards the advertised product due to lowered safety perceptions. Further, this backlash effect is more likely among high power consumers.
