Abstract

This study uses both the consumption value and framing theories to examine consumers' choices when making risky decisions. This examination uses a framework of "gives" and "gets" to test the consumer's perception of value and then uses a sequential fsQCA to take the mental accounting of a risky decision. The findings indicate that the value equation provides a beneficial conceptualization of safety that can guide managers and policymakers on ways to connect consumers' perceptions of value with mechanisms that create value-based framing. © 2015 Elsevier Inc.
