Abstract

This dissertation investigates the role of authenticity perceptions in technology-mediated interactions from two different perspectives: social perceptions and self-perceptions. The first essay reveals that communication modality can be an important authentic cue of source acceptance in human-machine interactions. The second essay examines how self-awareness can promote feelings of self-authenticity when consumers experience specific types of brands.
