Empirical foundation: The empirical foundation has been based on 15 semistructured interviews with people aged 23 - 56 years. The interviews were conducted in both Gothenburg and Skåne.


Conclusion: The wide flow of information contained in today's society is a good opportunity for consumers to get their preferences well met. It is of importance not to take in too much information since this creates uncertainty for a first-time consumer. A clear distinction between the right amount of information and too much information should therefore be developed. (Less)
