Abstract | The first focus of this study is to theorize and test the effects of explanations on consumers trust and distrust from persuasion and knowledge-based trust perspective. Based on attribution theory and the concept of locus of control in literature, two kinds of explanation were designed in the experiment. This study further examines one contingent factor, i.e. consumers’ skepticism towards the brand. Based on schema theory, this study takes a closer look at the interaction effects of explanation and this consumers’ trait of skepticism towards the brand. In this study, we assemble a framework that highlights when specific communication strategies should be used to help a brand restore consumers trust and avert distrust. |
