The extent to which Black immigrant/refugee adolescents understand persuasion tactics and develop coping skills is explored in this mixed-methods study. Adolescents were aware of persuasion tactics on social media, relying on visual cues to identify sponsored posts. Media use was positively related to PK, and African American media use was associated with skepticism. Although there remains a need to further develop PK, adolescents demonstrated generally skillful coping strategies for influencers’ persuasion tactics.

Within the theoretical framework of expectancy theory and the field of racial positions, this study reveals that in responses to anti-Asian racism, messages reflecting model minority stereotypes were predominant in conversations across the board but especially predominant among Asian Americans. Network analysis with exponential random graph models (ERGMs) demonstrated that other race groups are more likely to unite in interacting around the topic than Asian Americans. Based on these findings, purpose advertising campaign strategy insights and implications are proposed.","PeriodicalId":43045,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Current Issues and Research In Advertising","volume":"542 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135597236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A corporate account is a virtual spokesperson for advertising and promotions; they behave sometimes as if they are independent from corporate and garner support from their followers. While studies have revealed parasocial relationship constructions regarding celebrities on social media, few have examined corporate accounts. This study analyzes the data of Japanese Twitter users who are familiar with corporate accounts and finds that building parasocial relationships with corporate accounts positively impacts consumers’ online brand-related activities (COBRAs) and enhances brand affection. The effects mediated by brand affection and moderated by congruency between corporate account and corporate brand image are varied. Companies can use their accounts as endorsers and must strategically adjust their images to match their corporate brands when operating corporate accounts.

This research adopts a sequential mixed-methods design that combines in-depth one-on-one interviews and a cross-sectional survey to (1) qualitatively map out crucial streamer characteristics and platform affordances from the perspectives of consumers and (2) delineate the underlying mechanisms through which these factors enable online purchases. In Study 1, guided by the frameworks of source credibility, personality, and the MAIN (modality, agency, interactivity, and navigability) model of affordances, we extracted five streamer characteristics (expertise, trustworthiness, attractiveness, sincerity, and excitement) and four affordances of livestreaming e-commerce platforms (synchronicity, network association, metavoicing, and searchability) that facilitate online purchases. In Study 2, drawing on dual processing theory, we exemplified two information-processing routes (i.e., experiential route and rational route) and identified perceived pleasure and product trust as parallel mechanisms predicting purchases. Results revealed that a steamer’s attractiveness, sincerity, and excitement, as well as a platform’s searchability affordance, significantly facilitate purchase intentions via perceived pleasure. Meanwhile, a streamer’s expertise, trustworthiness, and sincerity, as well as a platform’s network association and metavoicing affordance, significantly shape purchase intentions via product trust.Keywords: Affordanceslivestreaming e-commercepersonalitysource credibility AcknowledgmentsThe authors would like to thank Liu Zifei and Yu Yifan for their assistance.Disclosure statementThe funder did not play any role in the entire research process.

Our findings demonstrate a compatibility effect between an interpersonal guilt appeal and a relational-interdependent self-construal and show that pride appeals are effective regardless of one’s accessible self-construal but may be particularly effective when combined with an ad that highlights a collective-interdependent self-construal. Further, findings suggest that evoking a collective-interdependent self-construal is particularly effective when it comes to behavioral intention (mask-wearing intention) because it elicits greater intention with both guilt and pride appeals. In addition, this work is the first to investigate collective-interdependent self-construal in advertising. Both theoretical contributions and practical implications are discussed.

Despite the growing interest in ethnicity targeting in social media, there is still much to learn about leveraging ethnicity data for advertising research and practice. In this study, we surveyed 1,030 Black U.S. social media users to explore their understanding of AI and data gathering related to ethnicity. We focused on ethnic affinity targeting (EAT), a controversial tactic used by social media platforms. Our results indicate that the ethical aspects of persuasion knowledge, specifically appropriateness beliefs, affect consumers’ coping strategies through distinct mechanisms. Consumers’ ethnic identification and the stability of their affinity feelings toward social media also influence intentions to use specific coping strategies. These findings suggest that consumers’ perceptions of ethnicity targeting depend on how advertisers collect and use ethnicity data and underscore the importance of diverse perspectives to inform algorithm transparency practices and policies.","PeriodicalId":43045,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Current Issues and Research In Advertising","volume":"44 1","pages":"373 - 391"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43193609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Contrary to practitioner insights, consumers did not perceive virtual influencers as more enjoyable, easier to use, more distant, and more likely to generate purchase intention than human influencers. Furthermore, influencer warmth (usefulness) is positively related to influencer attitude (purchase intention).

However, the emergence of digital natives as a new generation of consumers necessitates further research to ensure the continued effectiveness of online advertising. In this regard, the purpose of this paper is to investigate the effectiveness of advertising through an anthropomorphic virtual agent (AVA) on consumers’ psychological states and attitude toward online advertising. An experimental website was designed for the study. After interacting with AVA, respondents had to take part in a survey. Structural equation modeling (SEM) analyses using AMOS 24 and a bootstrapping method using SPSS Macro Conditional Process Analysis were conducted to test the research hypotheses. The results confirm the positive influence of the advertising through AVA on flow states and telepresence experience, which is positively associated with the attitude toward the online advertising. Working on AVAs is original as they represent the effective technology that can used for advertising. This study contributes to the existing research on how companies should integrate digital technologies to advertise, which to date has focused on other advertising channels such as social media advertisement, mobile advertisement, video advertisement, and e-mail advertisement.","PeriodicalId":43045,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Current Issues and Research In Advertising","volume":"44 1","pages":"295 - 331"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44392260","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
