ABSTRACT
Marketers and advertisers long have searched for new and more powerful ways to measure the effectiveness of advertising. One data source that has proven useful is consumers' moment-to-moment affective responses to television advertisements. The current study examined consumers' moment-to-moment advertisement evaluations by applying a form of principal-components analysis that allows researchers to understand divergence in consumer response and link this divergence to specific elements of the advertisement's storyline. Application of this technique revealed a consistent principal-component structure across a sample of advertisements and demonstrated a link between each principal component and consumers' retrospective advertisement and brand evaluations.
