Message Modality and Elaboration on Online Advertisements

Abstract Details

2016, Master of Arts in Professional Communication, Youngstown State University, Department of Communicaton.
The present research examines modality as it relates to elaboration. Previous research indicates that modality does affect the ability to elaborate. This study used print and video modalities of real-world advertisements to examine the differences in elaboration on each modality. There were also notable correlations regarding attitude certainty and perceived knowledge. Overall, modality did not affect aspects of elaboration including actual and perceived knowledge. The modality presented did affect the amount of relevant elaboration on the topic at hand.
