This study examines how consumers\u2019 power distance beliefs and the use of exclusivity and authenticity in marketing communications influence their preferences. Through Study 1a and 1b, we find that the interaction between power distance beliefs and marketing appeals significantly impacts consumer purchase intentions. Further, Study 2 demonstrates these results and sheds light on the underlying psychological mechanism. This research contributes to the extant literature by elucidating the complex dynamics between power distance beliefs, advertising appeal, and cross-cultural consumer behavior in the digital economy. Additionally, it offers practical insights for firms aiming to craft effective marketing messages for culturally diverse audiences through digital marketing and e-commerce.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jtaer20010007","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,8]],"date-time":"2025-01-08T09:30:45Z","timestamp":1736328645000},"page":"7","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["The Influence of Power Distance Beliefs and Advertising Appeal on Consumers\u2019 Purchase Intentions"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Ruotong","family":"Feng","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Management, Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yu","family":"Sun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3683-9601","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kai","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"International Business School, Jinan University, Zhuhai 519070, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1667-7206","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zan","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Management, Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Defeng","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Management, Jinan University, Guangzhou 510632, China"},{"name":"International Business School, Jinan University, Zhuhai 519070, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"161","article-title":"Editorial\u2014What is an interactive marketing perspective and what are emerging research areas?","volume":"18","author":"Wang","year":"2024","journal-title":"J.
