Notes:
Paper presented at the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association annual meeting, Boston, Massachusetts, July 31-August 2, 2016., Analysis shows that incumbent firms in four food industries tend to price higher and advertise less to deter entry when potential entrants are more competitive in terms of potential market share. Industries in which incumbents adopt lower prices and higher advertising signal that there is great potential for profit and, therefore, entrants with moderate competitiveness are also able to enter the market.
TARES framework introduced in 2001 by Baker and Martinson: Truthfulness of the message, Authenticity of the persuader, Respect for the person being persuaded, Equity of the persuasive appeal, and Social Responsibility for the common good. Addresses the "notion of communication practitioner accountability toward the message receiver in persuasive communication." To pass the TARES test, a message must fulfill all five principles. This study revealed that "fast food ads in Singapore failed many ethical principles of the TARES."
