Abstract

The main aim of this paper is to gain a deeper understanding of consumers’ attitudes towards advertising in general by comparing the African immigrant consumer group in the United States and a control group. Following Shavitt et al.’s (1998) study on “Whites and non-Whites” attitude towards advertising, the African immigrant consumer group is compared with a control group (i.e., non-African immigrants) to enhance appropriate contextual comparison (see also Shavitt et al. 1998).
