This study was conducted to investigate whether attitudes and recognitions of middle and high school students regarding environmental concerns were improved after anuran call monitoring. It was a step toward monitoring local environmental changes with anuran calls. Three-striped pond frogs (Rana nigromaculata), Bullfrogs (R. catesbeiana), and Narrow-mouthed toads (Kaloula borealis) were surveyed to determine local abundance and distribution of them in 12 study sites using their advertising calls. A published booklet, which contains morphological, physiological, ecological, and acoustic information on amphibian species and methods of monitoring anuran calls were provided to monitoring students for identifying the three species. Pretest-posttest were conducted before and after monitoring from 10 April to 28 August in 2005 to determine how the monitoring students changed their attitudes on environmental issues, increased knowledges on amphibians, and improved the understanding on the cause and effect of declining amphibian populations. The amphibian monitoring program was effective to improve the students' attitudes towards conserving environments as well as the students' knowledge on general behavior and ecology of various amphibian species although their understanding about various environmental problems was not. In addition, the program increased the students' understanding on the problems of declining amphibian populations.

This is a study on preference and memory of TV commercials for food service products and on the processes of relevant attitudes and purchasing activities. The results of this study showed that the higher preference for commercials, the higher rate of memory and that a business with high preference for commercials had all of six variables in the process of purchasing behaviors at the high mean. In conclusion, a food service provider should consider preference to make efficient commercials for consumers in implementing commercials; such preference for commercials may be favorable for attitudes toward brand and commercials as well as for the future memory of the commercials, which have immediate effects on the future purchasing behaviors.

This study examined the conditional indirect effect of EEG (electroencephalogram) arousal on the relationship among affective valence, visual attention, perceived self-relevance, and attitudes toward campaign issues in the context of public service announcements (PSAs). Using SPSS macro (No. 14) of conditional process model, the findings in this current study indicated that the perceived self-relevance mediates the relationship between affective valence of PSA and attitudes toward issues and, in turn, is moderated by EEG arousal, indicating goodness-of-fit of the moderated mediation of psychophysiological arousal on PSAs. The results suggested that management of PSAs should be considered the strategic combination between affective valence and perceived self-relevance in advertising appeals.

The use of multiple celebrity endorsement is a common practice in advertising campaigns. However, little research has been conducted on the effects of multiple celebrity endorsement. In particular, the current study is designed to delve into what factors influence the effects of multiple celebrity endorsement. Portfolio-brand fit, portfolio-celebrity fit, and portfolio celebrity-consumer fit are three factors that affect a consumer's attitude toward the ad, the endorsed brand, and the purchase intention in the context of multiple celebrity endorsement. Study findings suggest that portfolio-brand fit, portfolio-celebrity fit, and portfolio celebrity-consumer fit positively affect attitudes toward the ad. In addition, as shown in the modified model, covariance among these three variables was found. Practical and theoretical implications were also discussed.

This study focused on the brand attitude of consumers toward social innovation companies so that they could have differentiated competitive advantage and secure competitive advantage with ordinary companies. To this end, the difference in consumer brand attitudes between products of social innovation entities and products of general enterprises was compared through blind testing. The blind test results of this study showed that there was no statistically significant difference in product properties or brand attitudes, but after the information of the after-sales product was disclosed, the information included that the soap product used as a laboratory was natural handmade soap, indicating that post-brand attitudes improved in both social innovation and general enterprise products. And after explaining the social values pursued by social innovators, the increased interest in social innovation firms compared to ordinary enterprises resulted in a statistically significant increase in brand attitudes toward social innovation enterprise products. Clear and unexaggerated information displays on product packaging can be a tool to improve brand attitudes. In addition, in order to raise consumer awareness of social innovation enterprise products, there will be a need to enhance education and promotion policies for social innovation companies at the government level, and developing self-help measures for social innovation companies to promote themselves by presenting the contents of their social values as advertising copy on their product packaging may also be another breakthrough for improving brand attitudes and increasing sales.

This study aims to explore the psychological factors influencing the persuasive effect of virtual influencers, with a specific focus on the impact of social exclusion. Additionally, it examines the mediating effect of parasocial relationships on advertising effectiveness. To achieve these goals, the study conducted an experiment using a 2 (influencer type: human vs. virtual human) × 2 (social exclusion: social exclusion vs. social acceptance) between-group factorial design. The results revealed that consumers who experienced social exclusion exhibited more positive attitudes toward the influencer and the product, higher intentions to purchase the product, and a greater willingness to share or recommend it, especially when the influencer was a real human (vs. a virtual influencer). These moderating effects were found to be mediated by parasocial relationships.

Advertisement for one type of product competes against another type using different advertising strategies. It is important to know which factors influence people's perception of the message within the advertisement and their formation of attitudes towards the advertisement. Using multidimensional scaling, this study investigated what main factors were important when people perceive beverage advertisements on TV. A positioning map was constructed based on similarity ratings of 14 drink advertisements. We examined the meaning of the three dimensions of the positioning map by asking a different group of participants to rate on components of attention, attitudes toward advertisements and products, and intention to purchase the product in each advertisement. It was found that three dimensions in the map was attention to content, color, and motion respectively. More importantly, the attentional component to content was related to the attitude of affection and action toward a beverage introduced in advertisement. These results suggest that content-based attention in advertisements induces a positive attitude toward the advertisements.
