The Effects of Reviews on Consumer Experiences
Reviews affect consumption decisions, but can they change product experience? We show that consumers exposed to negative reviews have a worse product experience compared with naive consumers, but positive reviews do not improve experience. This asymmetry arises because negative reviews focus consumers on the negative attributes of the reviewed product.
