Slide 4: Two Hypotheses 1. Hypothesis #1: It is believed that consumers perceive flat windows as more positive than arcade windows. This is because the freedom to browse a store without the pressure from a salesperson to buy is important to the consumer. 3. Hypothesis #2: It is believed that window displays are perceived differently by males and females. Example, male consumers are more positive towards window perception than the female consumers.
