The survey included describing the commercials, brand preference, television viewing hours, and demographics. Seniors in advertising judged the advertisement's creativity. Among many findings related to past research was the suggestion that people ‘carry a set’ of liked and disliked commercials. The study's major contribution may be its novel way of identifying memorable advertisements and assessing creativity.
