Abstract: | Much has been philosophized about information overload but few exact investigation has been made. The first investigations were conducted in the USA. Estimations are given for Germany. The used micro-model makes possible to obtain data about information overload by advertisements, too. The overload has far-spreading effects on the behavior of consumers. Since the supply side of information has been growing faster than the number of consumers, there are changes on both sides: activation force of the presentation of information becomes stronger and the interest of consumers becomes weaker. |
