W3 preattentive mere exposure effect (janeswki) PAPER LEZEN Flashcards
Sources of affective responses 3
- A direct affective response to a stimulus (surprise)
- An affective response to the match between the stimulus and a stored cognitive representation (recognizing someone) (paper is about this)
- An affective response to the meaning of a stimulus (respone to a toy from your childhood)
pre attentive manner
this means that we recognize them unconsciously. You don’t remember exposue but brain stores information
How to enhance affective responses to brand names and products? 2
By increasing the availability of the attentive source (repetition) or the duration of the initial stimuli exposure (conscious)
- Increasing the availability of the preattentive exposure. (unconscious)
o The ability to establish a mental representation is resource dependent.
o Depends on how we process information in our brains.
Hemispheric resource theory assumes that there are two resource pools that support the formation of a mental representation
Analytic sequential repetitive (LEFT HEMISPHERE)
- Store information about textual stimuli
Holistic inferential processes (RIGHT HEMISPHERE)
- Store information about pictorial stimuli
The increase availability of resources in one hemisphere leads to an
increased processing load in another hemisphere.
A preattentive processing associated with the attended task activate one
hemisphere to a greater extent.
Resource availability in the opposing hemisphere increases in anticipation of cooperative processing. As a response more
more resources are allocated to create a mental representation of the brand.
Experiment 1
Manipulate the resource requirements of the stimulus in the visual field opposite to the one containing the brand name
experiment 1 4 different stimuli
Brand on the right
- Pictorial stimulus
- Textual stimulus
Brand on the left
- Pictorial stimulus
- Textual stimulus
results experimetn 1 (2)
- When the brand name was placed in the right visual field, it was evaluated more positively when the stimulus in the left visual field was pictorial as opposed to verbal
- When the brand name was placed in the left visual field it was evaluated more positively when the stimulus in the right visual field was verbal as opposed to pictorial
Experiment 2 Attentive resource strategy: can increase evaluation through goal directed attention allocation 2
- Reducing the attentive resources allocated to the target information thus increasing the likelihood that resources will be allocated to the processing of the target brand name
- Left hemisphere (text) if u reduce pictures text is more processed
Experiment 2 Pre-attentive resource strategy noncontrolled resource allocation 2
- Increasing the preattentive processing requirements of the target information, thus increasing the hemispheric resources available for processing the target brand name in the opposite hemisphere
- Foto on the left side will activate right hemisphere will increase resources in left hemisphere and results in better processing text in left hemi
Experiment 2 They test whether the effect is influenced by (2)
- Processing load of the verbal claim information
o Manipulated meaningful words Low (3.5 meaningful words) Moderate (7.5 meaningful words) High (12.5 meaningful words) - Availability of the attention resources for the processing of the target logo
o Manipulated Availability of time: Limited (3.5 secs) vs. Extended (6.5 secs)
Result experiment 2 In limited resources condition increase ….
In extende load resources decreases …..
in evaluation as information load increases.
when information load increases
This pattern is not influenced by attention in seconds
EXPERIMENT 3: putting together experiment 1 and 2: 2 dimensions of stimuli
Quantity of stimulus information: low, moderate, and high
Miningfulness of the stimulus information: (meaningless vs meaningful)
