Abstract

Based on an analysis of 17 semi-structured interviews, our research proposes to explore the decision to consume local food products through the influence of the temporality of realization of the perceived benefits on the perception of the sacrifices associated with this consumption. We analyze the temporal perspective of the different benefits expressed by the respondents and the nature of the perceived sacrifices. Our analyzes are based on the construal level theory (Trope and Liberman, 2010). They show that respondents feel less sacrifices to be made to consume local products when they are insensitive to short-term benefits (the flavor of the product, for example), and when they are more concerned about the lasting effects of their consumption. consumption for them and for society.
