The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of strategic restraint on controversial marketing promotion. Research limitations/implications Research limitations/implications - Research reasoning is limited because the variables are newly studied and we cannot directly assess the causal relationship. Originality/Value - This study is one of the few studies that has examined the relationship between strategic inhibition and controversial marketing. Conclusion - The concept of strategic constraint correlates positively with contentious marketing
