Effects are significant at p < .001 (*) and p < .05 (**). Since consumer vulnerability dimension of product knowledge did not show adequate validity within confirmatory factor analysis (factor loadings were < 0.50) it was removed from further analysis including SEM. Thus, the results for H1, H2, and H12a are not available and these hypotheses are rejected.
