Effects of Television Commercial Repetition, Receiver Knowledge, and Commercial Length: A Test of the Two-Factor Model

Abstract: The authors review the two-factor elaboration model of message repetition effects and report a study of the model's applicability to new product advertising. The study findings do not support the hypothesized inverted-U relationship between repetition and attitude toward a novel commercial and product. However, the underlying processes of learning, tedium arousal, and elaboration were observed. Viewer knowledge and commercial length did not moderate these processes.

“…Repetition. As the second independent variable in this 3 x 3 factorial design, three levels of repetition, one, three, and five exposures, were chosen on the basis of our judgment and past research (e.g., Belch, 1982;Rethans, Swasy, & Marks, 1986). We felt that by the fifth exposure we would be able to observe the negative effects of wear out, at least for the less ambiguous stimulus versions and, at the same time, avoid making the viewing situation overly taxing for the subjects.…”

“…This point is optimal in terms of physical comfort, cognitive performance, and hedonic tone. Consumer research with nonmusic stimuli has generally been supportive of an optimal level of arousal (e.g., Anand & Sternthal, 1990;Rethans, Swasy, & Marks, 1986;Sonbanmatsu & Kardes, 1988).…”
