The students were drawn from a university-wide pool of undergraduate students who agreed to participate in academic research. Students were offered course credit for their participation or allowed to complete an alternate assignment. The respondents belong primarily to the Generation-Y cohort (18-25 year old) that is used consistently in advertising research (Baek and Morimoto, 2012; Clayton and Heo, 2011). Typically, a homogenous student sample might help to reduce error variance, facilitating stronger theory-testing (Baek and Morimoto, 2012). Data were collected within two weeks of launch of the online survey.
