摘　　要：来源国效应对一国产品的海外销售产生着重要影响。本文以在美国销售的中国H公司运动手表作为被试商品,在606份有效样本基础上,通过多元线性回归验证了中国品牌电子产品在美国的来源国效应。通过与其他七个国家进行对比,本文发现,虽然中国在美国消费者心目中的产品国家形象较为正面,但相对中国经济地位和产品质量而言,美国消费者对中国电子产品和中国品牌的“来源国偏见”普遍存在,“Made in China”目前仍是中国品牌在美国营销的不利因素。在以往研究的基础上,本文将来源国效应中的产品国家形象划分为整体绩效形象、整体制度形象和产品类属形象,在此基础上检验了多个消费者因素对来源国效应的调节作用,首次检验了消费者网购依赖度对消费者购买倾向的影响,并且发现消费者产品知识负向调节来源国效应,这一结论可以导出明确的管理启示。本文结论进一步深化了来源国效应相关研究,弥补了发展中国家逆向拓展发达国家市场时来源国效应研究的不足。Based on 606 valid samples,the sports watch brand‘H’from China is used as the subject to verify the country of origin effect of Chinese electronics brands in the United States through multiple linear regression.On the basis of previous studies,this paper classifies the product country image into three levels:overall performance image,overall system image and product category image.Based on this,the paper examines the evaluation of American consumers on the product country image of China in recent years,and finds that American consumers prejudice on China s electronic products and Chinese brands is obvious,“made in China”is still the adverse factor when Chinese brands try marketing in the United States at present.The result shows that country-of-origin effect of Chinese electronics brands in US exists exactly.And then this paper examines the moderating effect of multiple consumer factors on the country-of-origin effect.It is the first time to examine the impact of consumer online shopping dependence on consumer purchase intention.It is also found that consumers product knowledge negatively regulates the country-of-origin effect.This conclusion can lead to clear management implications.The results show that the image evaluation of the country of origin,consumers product knowledge and consumers dependence on online shopping are positively correlated with American consumers purchasing tendency towards Chinese sports watches.This shows that country of origin effect plays a significant role in American consumers purchase of Chinese brand electronics products.The more important finding of this paper is that consumers product knowledge has obvious negative regulation effect on country of origin effect.Among consumers who keep the same evaluation scale on China s image,the more knowledgeable the consumers,the lower their purchasing willingness on Chinese brands.This shows that when the country image is not so ideal,consumers product knowledge can reduce the negative effect of“country-of-origin bias”.For consum
