Although previous researches in social psychology or consumer behavior have widely discussed the assimilation and contrast effects the contextual stimuli may produce on target judgments, they have only focused on the effects of the two factors: the ambiguity of the target and the extremity of the contextual stimuli. The current research further proposes that the interpretation range of the contextual stimuli can also influence assimilation and contrast. It is assumed that, even though the ambiguity of the target and the extremity of the contextual stimuli remain the same, when the context range is wide enough to overlap with the target range, people may perceive both belong to the same category and therefore the assimilation bias will occur. However, when the context range cannot overlap with the target range, people may perceive they do not belong to the same category and therefore the contrast bias will occur. In addition to the bias direction, the current study will also examine the bias degree. Previous studies have only discussed the bias direction; the bias degree, however, has never been studied before. The current research proposes that the interpretation range of the context stimuli will influence the size of the overlapping area (or the non-overlapping area) and further influence the bias degree. It is assumed that, when the ambiguity of the target and the extremity of the contextual stimuli remain the same, if the overlapping area is larger, the assimilation degree (i.e., assimilation amount) will, instead, become smaller. On the other hand, when the ambiguity of the target and the extremity of the contextual stimuli remain the same, if the non-overlapping area is larger, the contrast degree (i.e., contrast amount) will also become larger. The current research findings will provide a more complete framework for the context effects on product judgments.週邊刺激物的解釋範圍週邊效果產品判斷的誤差同化與對比the interpretation range of the contextual stimulicontext effectsbias in product judgmentsassimilation and contrastbias directionbias degree週邊解釋範圍影響產品判斷的誤差方向及程度
