Regression analysis, descriptive analysis and ANOVA were used to analyze the data. The result of this study revealed that for both locations there was a positive effect of age on consumer ethnocentrism, while no effect was found in the gender, education level, income level on consumer ethnocentrism. Further research can be conduct a continuation after measure the tendency of ethnocentrism level to the consumer actions, such as willingness to buy.
