The construal level theory proposes that a psychological distance has a systematic effect on individuals’ thought and behavior. The present study purposed to apply temporal construal to advertising and consumer behavior. Specifically, we examined the effect of construal level fit on consumer choice of products. 208 participants were presented with one of the four purchase scenarios, which were either near or far (today vs. December) and either convenience goods or shopping goods (portable multimedia player vs. toothpaste). Then their choices between two products with either feasible or desirable advertising messages were measured. Results showed that participants were more likely to select products of which product category, type of advertising messages and expected purchase time were congruent. It suggests that the fitness of construal level affects consumer behaviors on product choice. Our findings have practical implications that they extended the application of the construal level theory to the consumer behavior domain.
