description The intense competition for consumer spending and the significant costs, risks, and potential rewards associated with multinational product introductions make it imperative that every aspect of consumer reaction to new products be explored.

Based on survey data from young adults in the United States and South Korea, we find that significant cultural effects exist between consumers from an individualism-centered and a Confucian/collectivism-centered country.
