JF Journal of Advertising Research JO J Advert Res FD WARC SP 87 OP 101 DO 10.2501/JAR-52-1-087-101 VO 52 IS 1 A1 Yongick Jeong A1 Hai Tran A1 Xinshu Zhao YR 2012 UL http://www.journalofadvertisingresearch.com/content/52/1/87.abstract AB This study explored the collective impact of repetition and position on advertising effectiveness as evidenced through recognition and likeability of advertisements that were broadcast at different times in the Super Bowl. The findings indicate that brands advertised more in the first half and brands that appeared in both halves but shown more in one half than the other were better recognized than those equally promoted in both halves. Meanwhile, advertisements presented in both halves but repeated more in the second half were less favored than those evenly shown in both halves. The results support theories of repetition and primacy effects.
