- H4: Consumer beliefs regarding the scientific certainty about the relationship between a particular
disease and a particular supplement are lower when the scientific certainty disclaimer is used on the
package label than when it is not used on the package label.
- Contrasts between the disease claim only and the short/long scientific evidence disclaimer
show no difference in the scientific certainty scores for both garlic (all p's > 0.15) and herb X (all p' > 0.39)
- No Support for H4
