Furthermore, in the present experiment, participants were presented with a single product, and were then asked to evaluate this product. We did not investigate effects of atypical design on product evaluations in an environment where the consumer is presented with more (similar) products simultaneously, such as is the case in a retail environment (c.f., Roehm & Roehm, 2010). Therefore, future research should focus on how atypical design affects product perception and product evaluations in such an environment, where several products compete for the consumer’s attention. Possibly, perceiving atypical packaging design of one product may not only affect evaluations about this product, but also affect the degree to which consumers process packaging of other, comparable products on the shelf.
