Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Consumer rebates have become a popular price discrimination and promotional tool among retailers and manufacturers to increase sales on a wide variety of durable and consumer goods. Rebates are attractive to consumers because they offer discounts that are larger than those of other types of price promotions. Rebates are distinct from coupons and other forms of price promotion because the effort required to receive the discount occurs after rather than before purchase. This difference has important implications for consumer behavior and rebate redemption rates. Research has shown that foregoing a rebate can be a rational choice that does not disadvantage consumers. Research has also demonstrated that biases in judgment and decision making contribute to slippage, which occurs when consumers are attracted by a rebate to make a purchase but later fail to redeem the rebate. Many manufacturers and retailers have moved toward consumer‐friendly rebates in an effort to simplify the redemption process and encourage repeat patronage.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
