Abstract

An individual's level of uncertainty avoidance impacts brand extension evaluations but uncertainty avoidance is composed of two sub-dimensions: risk aversion and ambiguity tolerance. This study finds high uncertainty avoidance individuals prefer extensions from broad breadth brands over narrow brands which conflicts with prior studies and this finding holds across sub-dimensions.
