Recent work on Global Consumption Orientation (GCO) represented an important step in understanding the global consumer in the increasingly interconnected world. GCO is an attitude set describing an individual's preference for consumption alternatives along a global-hybrid-local continuum. A global alternative is one that has no strong association with any one country, but is in demand in many countries around the world. A local alternative is one that is traditional to one's own country. Finally, a hybrid alternative represents a mix of global and local alternatives. Expanding the knowledge of the drivers and consequences of GCO will help researchers better understand the effects of globalization on consumers, and aid practitioners in developing strategies for creating, communicating and delivering value to the segment of globally oriented consumers.This study of the antecedents and consequences of GCO uses a motivational hierarchy approach called the 3M model. The 3M motivational hierarchy approach explains behavior as a combination of a hierarchical set of traits ranging from the abstract, called elemental traits, to the more concrete, called category-specific dispositions. This study examines the basic traits of self-identity and regulatory focus. The combination of traits ultimately comprise a model explaining the situational level trait of GCO and its resulting surface-level dispositions, in this case the salience of country-of-origin information, attitude towards global brands, and attitude towards globally oriented advertising.Both a field survey and classroom experiments were conducted to assess the proposed model. While results from the classroom experiments are inconclusive, results from the field study lend support for the model. Specifically, the effects of identity are found to predict GCO. GCO results in more positive attitudes towards globally oriented advertising and less salience of country-of-origin information. The relationship between GCO and its outcomes are both direct and mediated by consumer ethnocentrism. Managerial implications of the findings are discussed.
