“…Whereas prior marketing research focused predominantly on the effects of primary colors (e.g., red and blue; Labrecque & Milne, 2012) and other color dimensions such as lightness (Hagtvedt & Brasel, 2016, 2017), saturation has received scant attention, especially with regard to consumers' assessment of product sustainability. While previous research has explored how color saturation affects consumers' perceptions in various ways, such as increasing a product's perceived size (Hagtvedt & Brasel, 2017), enhancing its perceived freshness and tastiness (Liu et al, 2022), or influencing trustworthiness judgments (Skulmowski et al, 2016), our study focuses specifically on the impact of color saturation on consumer perception of a product's eco‐friendliness and the resulting effects on consumers' behavioral intentions. Indeed, some studies offer evidence about saturated colors' ability to trigger attention and emotional arousal (e.g., Gorn et al, 1997; Gu et al, 2019; Hagtvedt & Adam Brasel 2017; He & Lv, 2022), but the effects of low‐saturation colors remain unclear.…”
