Abstract
This research empirically examines how rating scales used in a survey research result in systematic differences between students and non-students. In marketing literature, it is common that researchers rely on the college students as subjects in their academic research. However, consumer researchers have been worried about the generalization problems embedded in the use of samples of college students.
