| Summary: | Previous research has suggested that country-based emotions (i.e., emotions associated with a country) can influence consumer evaluations of a product from thatcountry.

Thesefindings are beneficial for local brands in that they can promote tourist spendingat their destination by cooperating with destination marketers in developing integrated promotional campaigns that elicit congruent emotions. |
