Thesis (M.S.)--Webster University, 2018.

Previous studies in e-commerce have predominantly focused on the extrinsic cues that are used by online consumers to ascertain product quality. However, e-tailers also have the option to convey intrinsic cues via their websites to effectively alleviate product quality uncertainty. Studies that examined the effect of both types of quality cues used secondary panel data collected from the Internet and consequently, it was unclear how online consumers were actually using the cues. This study addresses this discrepancy by empirically examining the contemporaneous effect of textbook sample as an intrinsic cue and the average user rating as an extrinsic cue on perceived quality of printed textbooks sold online. The experiment was a 2 by 2 between-subjects factorial design with four conditions. The average user rating and the sample were both manipulated at two levels: "high"/"low" and "sample"/"no sample," respectively. The data was gathered through an anonymous online survey from a sample of 504 American consumers, who were members of a survey panel managed by Qualtrics. The results confirmed the findings of previous studies that the average user rating strongly affects perceived product quality. However, the main effect of the textbook sample as well as its moderating effect on the relationship between average user rating and perceived textbook quality was not found. The study contributes to the existing literature on perceived product quality and the cue utilization theory by uncovering how online consumers tend to use intrinsic and extrinsic cues to judge the quality of textbooks offered by e-tailers. Based on the results of this study, practical recommendations are suggested for individual online consumers, e-tailers, and new, unknown authors of textbooks.
