DESCRIPTION

www.placedise.com Advertising affects the consciousness as well as the unconsciousness. Therefore, you have to always consider explicit as well as implicit effects when measuring advertising effects. However, most companies ignore this fact, which can lead to fatal mistakes. Learn more about this and how to do it better!

How does Advertising work?

After the advertising stimulus is perceived through our senses…

...our subconsciousness evaluates the relevance of the stimulus before any possible forwarding to

the consciousness occurs.

How does Advertising work?

The majority of all (advertising) stimuli is not explicitly and consciously, but always implicitly and

unconsciously processed.

Measurement of the Explicit Memory

Measurement of the explicit memory is based on a concrete recall of the stimulus.

Aided Recall The test person has to name all products or brands, he or she noticed before.

Therefore, he or she also gets further information (e.g. product category).

Free Recall

Recognition

The test person has to name all products or brands, he or she noticed.

He or she won't get any further information for this task.

The test person has to identify the products or brands he or she has seen before - out of a given set.

The measurement of explicit memory effects is always done after the test situation (stimulus).

Measurement of the Implicit Memory

Page 9: Measuring Advertising Effects - Ways, Problems, Solutions

Measurement of the Implicit Memory

Measurement of implicit memory is usually based on the increase in performance of a specific

task - a explicit memory of a stimulus is not necessary.

Word Fragment Tests With word fragment or word stem completion tests, you measure how fast and precise fragments like

“b_er b_a_d” (beer brand) can be completed.

Consideration Set

Physiology

With consideration set tests, you measure, if a stimulus implicitly changes the set of brands (or

products) that is considered for buying.

With physiological tests, you measure the direct response to a stimulus by visualizing the body's

reactions and functions.

There are numerous methods to measure the implicit memory, because it includes a lot of different effects such as Priming,

Mere Exposure, Processing Fluency, and so on.

Conclusion

Page 11: Measuring Advertising Effects - Ways, Problems, Solutions

Conclusion

A reasonable measurement of advertising effects can only be achieved when both, the implicit

and explicit memory, are taken into account!

The measurement of the explicit memory doesn't provide valid data for the determination of effects, such

as change of attitude, trust or an increased probability of purchase.

The measurement of the implicit memory is very complex and often not possible without bias. It therefore

requires an even more comprehensive and larger research design.

Advertising effects can be only measured clearly when implicit AND explicit effects are

measured and analyzed in combination!

The implicit memory (mostly subconsciously processed) and the explicit memory (mostly processed

consciously) interact with each other constantly.

Measurement of Advertising Effects in Practice

Mainly due to the high costs of truly comprehensive studies, most companies almost exclusively

rely on very simple explicit tests.

Explicit

Tests*

* Ususally conducting simple recall tests

Implicit

„too expensive“

„too complicated“

„too complex“

„I don‘t understand it“

Problems

This strategy is extremely risky and can go totally wrong without any warning.

Page 16: Measuring Advertising Effects - Ways, Problems, Solutions

16

Problems

Explicit measurement methods can - by definition - only measure explicit memory effects.

Implicit effects, which often affect especially the reputation, are neglected.

Name the product

you saw!

Product XYZ

Conclusion due to the recall test Real Effect

Extremely successful! Heavy loss of image.

Solution

Theoretically, doing large investments (time and money) you can conduct very comprehensive

studies that take into account also implicit effects.
