What is an impression?
An impression is one exposure of a person to an ad; some marketers refer to it as an ad being emitted or displayed once.

Does an impression indicate the ‘quality’ of the person’s attention to the ad?
no
just because an impression occurs does not mean that a person is actively watching or listening to the ad. That’s why the definition of impression is not that a person sees or hears an ad once; the definition of an impression is that the ad is emitted (and a person therefore has the opportunity to hear or see it).
an impression means that an ad is _______ and the person has the oppurtunity to see or hear it.
emitted
Does an impression tell us how many people were exposed to the ad?
no
Impressions indicate how many times an ad has been emitted, but this doesn’t tell us how many people were exposed to the ad. For instance, if an ad has 100 impressions, it could mean 100 people saw the ad once each, or it could mean one person saw the ad 100 times.
