Describe the effects that normative statements have on consumer expectations and thus the demand for certain goods and services.

Normative statements shape the way a person feels about a good or service because they show the world the way it should be, rather than how it is. These will increase the quantity demanded of a good or service, if the statement shows the good in a positive light. It will have the opposite effect if the statement is negative.
