Abstract
ABSTRACT This project represents one of the few efforts in studying the effectiveness of social media advertising (ads). Specifically, the effects of three major communication components—message, channel/media, and receiver/audience—on ad clicks are examined. The message component includes perceived informativeness, entertainment, and intrusiveness of the ad; the media component focuses on social media security and the audience component focuses on their involvement. The effects of ad clicks on product evaluations and then on intentions to spread positive word-of-mouth are also investigated. A research model is developed and tested with online-survey data from 572 social media users. The contributions, practical implications, and future research directions are discussed in the context of social media.
期刊介绍:
As information technology and the Internet become more and more ubiquitous and pervasive in our daily lives, there is an essential need for a more thorough understanding of information security and privacy issues and concerns. The International Journal of Information Security and Privacy (IJISP) creates and fosters a forum where research in the theory and practice of information security and privacy is advanced. IJISP publishes high quality papers dealing with a wide range of issues, ranging from technical, legal, regulatory, organizational, managerial, cultural, ethical and human aspects of information security and privacy, through a balanced mix of theoretical and empirical research articles, case studies, book reviews, tutorials, and editorials. This journal encourages submission of manuscripts that present research frameworks, methods, methodologies, theory development and validation, case studies, simulation results and analysis, technological architectures, infrastructure issues in design, and implementation and maintenance of secure and privacy preserving initiatives.
