Test results: Age and promoti<strong>on</strong> resp<strong>on</strong>se are not U-shaped related but positively related.<br />

These findings imply that older c<strong>on</strong>sumers seem to be the most resp<strong>on</strong>sive towards sales<br />

promoti<strong>on</strong>s in general. No empirical evidence for a U-shape relati<strong>on</strong> is found. Whether this<br />

is caused by lack <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> in-store promoti<strong>on</strong> resp<strong>on</strong>siveness am<strong>on</strong>g younger c<strong>on</strong>sumers or by an<br />

unexpected large in-store promoti<strong>on</strong> resp<strong>on</strong>siveness by older c<strong>on</strong>sumers is investigated in<br />
