Effects of Consumer Ethnocentrism and Product Knowledge on Consumers’ Utilization of Country-Of-Origin Information

ABSTRACT - This article is concerned with the effects of consumer ethnocentrism and product knowledge on consumers’ utilization of country-of-origin information for their product evaluation. The data suggest that, regardless of consumers’ ethnocentrism, low-knowledge consumers’ product attitude is more strongly influenced by country-of-origin perception than high-knowledge consumers’ product attitude.
