Also demonstrates that consumers evaluation of the overall store assortment draws on the perceived choice within the product categories where they are highly sensitive to the assortment range. @ The Emerald Research Register for this joumal is available at http://wrrw.emerald insight.com/researchregister The current issue and full text archive of this journal is available at
