Abstract: | This study addresses the issue by examining how contextual communication styles influence the audience's ability to interpret meaning from pictorial advertisements. The results of a quasi-experimental study conducted using subjects from Philippines and the United States (USA) support the propostion that consumers from high-context communication systems are more apt than those from low-context ones to derive implicit meaning from visual images in print ads. |
