The purpose of this study is to identify the process of the formation of attitude toward advertisement and the attitude toward brand after consumers are exposed to advertisement. To fulfill the purpose of these study, we used the dual-mediation model is proven by MacKenzie, Lutz & Belch(1986) and these three factors-informativeness, entertainment, irritation-were the starting point for explaining how consumers asses the value of advertising are proven by Ducoffe(1996).
And it is empirically tested to influence the relationship among the advertising attributions(informativeness, entertainment, irritation) and the attitude toward advertisement(Aad), brand cognition(Cb) and the relation of impact of brand cognition, attitude toward brand(Ab) and brand purchase intention(PI) by structural relation model through covariance structural analysis. The results of this study is as follow:
In the first, regarding of advertising attributes, there existed a significant difference between Aad and Cb, in all the sub factors of advertising attributes such as informativeness, entertainment, irritation. Especially, the influence of informativeness is much more significant in the relation of Aad and the influence of entertainment is much more significant in the relation of brand cognition. The influence of irritation is much more negative significant the relationship between Aad and Cb. In actuality, in the case of the advertising-making and the exposure of advertising, it is not impossible to make only one of advertising attributes such as informativeness, entertainment, irritation. Therefore, it is need the strategic approach to reduce irritation and to increase the range of informativeness, entertainment.
In the second, in the relations among advertising attributes, Aad, Cb and Ab, it is found to has a direct and indirect effects of the factors of advertising attributes on Cb and Ab against indirect effects mediated through Aad. The informativeness, the entertainment of advertising attributes had a significantly positive relationship to Aad, Cb but the irritation did not have a significant relationship to Aad, Cb. Or The informativeness, the entertainment of advertising attributes have a direct influence on Cb and partly indirect mediation on Cb against indirect effects mediated through Aad.
In the third, in the beginning exposure advertising to consumers, the Aad have a meaningful direct influence on Cb. But the Aad did not have a direct influence on Ab, only through the meditate effect of Cb, it had a indirect influence on Ab.
As a result of synthetic analysis, it is very important to make advertising that can focus more on the informativeness, the entertainment in the beginning exposure advertising to consumers. The high sensibility appeal is stimulated to consumers through a consistent, repeatable exposure of the high entertainment advertising give form to Cb, Ab in the mind of consumers.
Therefore, it came to a conclusion that the goal of this study promote brand purchase intention as the ultimate goal of advertising through this process.
It is useful to provide these results of the study as basic data for the advertising makers in order to develop clear advertising attribute and appropriate marketing advertising strategies.
