Abstract

Labroo and Patrick (2009) show that positively- (negatively-) valenced emotions are associated with a relatively more (less) abstract construal. However, similarly valenced emotions may differ on other dimensions, impacting construal level. Replicating Labroo and Patrick (2009), happiness is associated with a relatively more abstract construal than sadness. Extending their findings, disgust is associated with a relatively more abstract construal than sadness. This difference in construal level results in disgust and sadness impacting brand-extension judgments differently.
