4.1. Message Processing Flashcards
Information Processing model
Exposure => attention => comprehension => acceptance => retention/ retrieval => decision making => action
Source of attention
- relevance (situational, personal)
- stimulus (pleasant, prominent, novel)
Personal relevance model - SSPR
situational sources of personal relevance => applies to everyone
Personal relevance model - ISPR
Intrinsic sources of personal relevance => applies to certain segment; need to find the right time/ place
Comprehension
“Rote” learning vs “active” learning
Rote learning
- no effort required on the part of the viewer
- learning is passive and automatic, not active
- “echoing” the message is sufficient
- sufficient for inducing brand awareness and low involvement attitude
- goal: generate trial
Active Learning
- necessary for forming high involvement brand attitude
- goal: generate favorable thought towards the brand
Acceptance goal
generate actual action
Retention
involves transfer of information into long-term memory => strengthening or reinforcing the linkages among concepts in memory
Retrieval
information from MCs that is stored in memory can influence consumer behavior only if its retrieved from memory
message strategy model
ad messages can be classified based on target audiences levels of involvement and motivation
message strategy model - levels of involvement
- high involvement
- low involvement
message strategy model - types of motivations
- “informational” reasons
- “transformational” reasons
Involvement - degree of risk
- economic risk
- physical risk
- social risk
low involvement
- low perceived risk
- “try and see”
