Humanizing Green Brands to Foster Recommendation Intention: An Interplay of Brand Anthropomorphism, Brand Transparency, Brand Love, Brand Scepticism and Eco‐Label Credibility
With the rise of environmental marketing claims, the challenge of fostering authentic consumer advocacy has become a key challenge for green brands. This study explores how attributing human‐like qualities to a green brand influences consumers' intention to recommend. We propose that anthropomorphism makes abstract environmental issues more relatable, activating unique socio‐cognitive processes in sustainable branding. Data were collected employi…
Is an exciting outsider or a trustworthy local more persuasive? A self-construal contingent, dual-pathway model of cross-cultural travel vlogs
The 2024 expansion of China’s visa exemption policy has accelerated the recovery of inbound tourism, highlighting the growing influence of user-generated content (UGC) in shaping destination perceptions. In travel vlogs, creators increasingly adopt distinct narrative perspectives – foreign other-perspective versus local self-perspective – yet it remains unclear how these perspectives interact with linguistic cues such as language arousal to influ…
