Abstract: | Music is an increasingly prominent and expensive feature of broadcast ads, yet its effects on message reception are controversial. The authors propose and test a contingency that may help resolve this controversy. Experimental results suggest that message reception is influenced by the interplay of two musical properties: attention gaining value and music message congruency. Increasing audience attention to music enhances message reception when the music evokes message congruent (versus incongruent) thoughts. |
