(p. 39). Recall that 50 consumers were randomly selected from all consumers in a designated market area to participate in the study. The researchers randomly assigned 25 consumers to read a within-store price promotion advertisement (“was $100, now $80”) and 25 consumers to read a between-store price promotion (“$100 there, $80 here”). The consumers then gave their opinion on the value of the discount offer on a 10-point scale (where 1 = lowest value and 10 = highest value). The goal was to compare the average discount values of the two groups of consumers.
