Consumer Neuroscience-Based Metrics Predict Recall, Liking and Viewing Rates in Online Advertising
2017
[EN] The purpose of the present study is to investigate whether the effectiveness of a new ad on digital channels (YouTube) can be predicted by using neural networks and neuroscience-based metrics (brain response, heart rate variability and eye tracking). Neurophysiological records from 35 participants were exposed to 8 relevant TV Super Bowl commercials. Correlations between neurophysiological-based metrics, ad recall, ad liking, the ACE metrix score and the number of views on YouTube during a year were investigated. Our findings suggest a significant correlation between neuroscience metrics and self-reported of ad effectiveness and the direct number of views on the YouTube channel. In add…
TERRORISM AND INTERNATIONAL TOURISM: NEW EVIDENCE
2008
This paper analyses the impact of terrorist activity on international tourist flows. To this end, we have estimated a cross‐sectional gravity equation for tourism from the G‐7 countries to a sample of 134 destinations over the period 2001–2003. Within this framework, we evaluate the deviation from ‘normal’ tourist flows due to terrorist activity, which is considered as negative advertising for the affected country. The analysis suggests that both domestic victims and international attacks are relevant factors when foreign tourists make their choice. This result is robust under alternative specifications. Moreover, the impact of terrorism is more severe in developing countries. The author is…
Key Predictors of Customer Loyalty for Facebook Brand Pages. Empirical Research on Social Media Marketing
2018
The new marketing practices and developments have had incredible impact on consumers’ purchasing process and information-acquisition process, and most notably, social media is changing marketing. The research setting for this paper refers to consumer behavior on social media services, particularly Facebook and consumers’ interactions with brands on this social platform. Through this research, we examine which consumer behavior concept has a higher impact in generating loyalty for the brands consumers interact with on Facebook. Using Automatic Linear Modeling, we forecast and model a target variable (namely, consumer loyalty) based on linear relationships between the target variable and its …
Flow Theory and Online Marketing Outcomes: A Critical Literature Review
2013
Abstract The aim of this paper is to provide a critical review of flow theory - a psychological state - and its marketing outcomes in online environments. Despite the strong interest of researchers from various disciplines, adapting the flow theory to online environments has been problematic. Based on a careful examination of the literature, we identified conceptual challenges confronted when studying flow online. The paper further discusses some possible solutions for challenges and underlines the need for more studies in this research area. Finally, marketing outcomes of applying flow theory in online environment were examined.
The competitive development of flowers and ornamentals firms through the use of web-marketing strategies: a survey in the convergence objective regio…
2011
The growth of ICT, and in particular the integrated use of internet within firm marketing strategies, has brought about deep changes at both sector and firm level. Firm processes have been drastically modified in their communication and promotional aspects. In particular, firmcustomer relationships are changing and therefore internet represents a preferential means, not only for transferring the firm image in the global communication, but above all in order to build a dialogue and a continuous interaction which contribute to consumers’ fidelization. This empirical research proposal is to be considered in the framework of “Business to Consumer” relationships and is addressed to the flowers a…
Forms of Animality: The Dog
2018
Animals are not the object of zoosemiotics as discussed here, neither is their language nor any other system of signs that affects them directly as living creatures that communicate, but the forms of animality, forms through which the concept of animal itself is socially constructed and transformed over time. Now, if there is one place in which such forms are plain to see, it is in those areas that focus on their nutrition. Looking at feeding animals as a semiotic activity, this paper wants to focus on what I call a nutritional pact, an implicit agreement that binds humans and animals, and that is being continuously negotiated by cultures. A relationship that advertising deeply contributes …
Disease awareness campaigns in printed and online media in Latvia: cross-sectional study on consistency with WHO ethical criteria for medicinal drug …

Social media evaluation metrics
2016

Hence authors believe that more specific online marketing revenue determination methods should be proposed. Objectives. The aim of this paper is to propose a formula that can be used to evaluate the return of social media activities depending on consumer purcha…
Context-sensitive text mining with fitness leveling Genetic Algorithm
2015
Contextual processing is a great challenge for information retrieval study - the most approved techniques include scanning content of HTML web pages, user supported metadata analysis, automatic inference grounded on knowledge base, or content-oriented digital documents analysis. We propose a meta-heuristic by making use of Genetic Algorithms for Contextual Search (GACS) built on genetic programming (GP) and custom fitness leveling function to optimize contextual queries in exact search that represents unstructured phrases generated by the user. Our findings show that the queries built with GACS can significantly optimize the retrieval process.
Transmedia Experience and Narrative Transportation
2016
The aim of this research is to better understand the impact of transmedia storytelling on consumers' experiences in the cultural field (e.g., at a museum or heritage site). Transmedia storytelling refers to the interaction among different forms of media leading to convergence (telling a single story across multiple platforms and forms, namely, using digital technologies). This article discusses whether this multidimensionality of platforms enables a greater appropriation of the story and improves consumers' experience with the cultural object and whether the transmedia experience can lead to a positive attitude toward transmedia platforms and the cultural object.
