Abstract of paper presented at the National Agricultural Communications Symposium, Southern Association of Agricultural Scientists (SAAS) Agricultural Communications Section, Jacksonville, Florida, February 4-5, 2018.
11 pages., Online via UI e-subscription, Researchers investigated the relative effectiveness of comparative and non-comparative advertising in communicating the differentiating attributes of a brand of pasta among the Italian consumer respondents. Results showed that comparative advertising's effect depends on consumers' perceived differentiation among the brands and consumers' level of involvement with the specific product category.
18 pages., Online via UI e-subscription, Investigated the extent to which extenuating factors (excluding those produced by the commercial) affected the extent to which an advertisement was both persuasive and eventually engendered persuasion. Results demonstrated that the combined pre-existing market forces had a greater impact on a commercial's ability to persuade than did the message or creativity in the advertisement itself. Foods were among the products involved in this analysis.
