Etnocentrismo riesgo consumidor mercados emergentes. 80 % of the world’s consumers live in emerging markets and transitional economies, despite which insufficient consumer research has been conducted into these markets, such as Mexico. In response to this, the purpose of this study is to contribute to understanding of Mexican consumers’ behavior, and specifically tries to empirically test the consequences of ethnocentrism on consumers’ perceived risk on European automobiles. This study shows that ethnocentrism increases perceived risk, which is new in the literature, which results interesting due to the current international economic crisis that affect consume and automobiles’ sales. Pese a que el 80% de la población del mundo vive en países en desarrollo y economías emergentes, como es el caso de México, no se ha realizado investigación suficiente sobre el comportamiento del consumidor de estos países. Ante esta situación, el presente trabajo tiene como objetivo general contribuir al estudio del comportamiento del consumidor mexicano, y concretamente pretende determinar empíricamente el efecto del etnocentrismo de los consumidores en el riesgo percibido en la compra de automóviles europeos. Los resultados indican que el etnocentrismo puede aumentar el riesgo percibido, lo que tiene gran interés en la actualidad por la coyuntura de crisis económica que afecta al consumo y venta de automóviles.
