We conducted two online experiments on Instagram and Facebook with MTurk and samples from college students, respectively. Study 1 reveals the adverse effects of personalization on activating the perception of psychological ownership, the perception of advertising relevance, positive attitudes toward advertising, and behavioral intention. The negative impacts of personalization on attitude toward advertising and behavioral intention are mediated by the sequential perception of psychological ownership and advertising relevance and further moderated by consumers’ privacy concerns. Additionally, we identified three motivational drivers that underlie the personalization effect on psychological ownership. Study 2 demonstrates advertising type as another moderator, reporting the negative effects of personalization arising only for banner ads, not native ads, through the mediation of perceived advertising relevance. Our findings suggest that while personalization in social media advertising can diminish consumer feelings of psychological ownership, leading to less favorable advertising outcomes, these effects can be mitigated with strategic approaches addressing consumer concerns over privacy and by considering advertising type.Keywords: Personalizationsocial media advertisingpsychological ownershipnative advertising Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Data availability statementThe data generated during this study are not available to provide publicly.Additional informationNotes on contributorsJihye KimJihye Kim is an associate professor in the Department of Integrated Strategic Communication, College of Information and Communication, University of Kentucky.

Theoretically rooted in the Persuasion Knowledge Model, we aim to identify and investigate the prevalence of specific consumer groups that differ in their awareness levels, critical evaluations, and abilities to cope with such algorithmic persuasion in social media, as well as to investigate the predictors of these groups. By performing an online survey among a Dutch sample (n = 450) and a two-step cluster analysis, we identified four groups: the Control Paradox (the largest group), Fatigued, Uninformed but Critical, and Skilled and Critical. The four groups differed in respect to gender, age, education level, internet skills, self-reported knowledge of algorithms, privacy concerns, and perceived personalization of branded social media messages. Theoretically, this paper contributes to our understanding of algorithmic persuasion by proposing a consumer typology and discussing implications for the Persuasion Knowledge Model. Practically, this study provides evidence-based recommendations for policymakers on how to empower different types of consumers.","PeriodicalId":48111,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advertising","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136013162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two experiments were conducted to examine how purchase hesitation caused by negative feedback from peers at the purchase stage can be resolved. The results indicate that collective cognitive dissonance and self-threat at the purchase stage decreases purchase intention. Offering advertising messages containing information that supports consumer choice mitigates the negative influence of purchase hesitation on purchase intention and information search intention. Moreover, providing promotional messages to enhance self-esteem reduces consumer intention to search for additional information, but does not restore already reduced purchase intention. This study provides meaningful implications for consumer decision-making research. The findings contribute to the theoretical development of new media and future research on consumer decision-making.Keywords: Purchase hesitationluxury goodscollective cognitive dissonanceself-affirmationself-threat Disclosure statementThe Authors declare that there is no conflict of interest.Data availabilityData will be made available on request.Additional informationFundingNational Research Foundation of Korea.","PeriodicalId":48111,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advertising","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136295291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
