Consumers Overvalue Scientifically Studied Product Claims
Key takeaways A new study finds that consumers often misremember if a product is labeled "scientifically studied" or "scientifically proven" — despite the significant difference in meaning between the two phrases.

Only 26% of subjects correctly remembered which phrase was used, and the percentage who recalled the information accurately was roughly the same among both groups.
