Latinx and White Adolescents’ Preferences for Latinx-Targeted Celebrity and Noncelebrity Food Advertisements: Experimental Survey Study

Latinx and White Adolescents’ Preferences for Latinx-Targeted Celebrity and Noncelebrity Food Advertisements: Experimental Survey Study

While multiethnic advertising aims to reach consumers of diverse ethnicities, monoethnic advertising reaches members of a single ethnic group [33]. A study by Shao et al [34] found that socially distinctive consumers (eg, Latinx minorities) are more likely to prefer same-race monoethnic advertisements because this exposure promotes a sense of shared identity and belonging [34].

Relationship Between Product Features and the Prices of e-Cigarette Devices Sold in Web-Based Vape Shops: Comparison Study Using a Linear Regression Model

Additionally, consumers may be deterred by the lack of access to trained professionals who can provide information about medication effects [11,12].
