Abstract
This paper is an attempt to study the impact of a trading bloc on a member country's product image. Specifically, we examine whether consumers' attitude toward NAFTA influences consumers' confidence, attitude, and purchase intention of Mexican-made product. Drawing from stimulus generalization and attitude conditioning theory, a theoretical ethic-based cross-cultural model is developed and tested using two samples of student buyers/users of Mexican-made personal computers in the United States and Canada.
