measured along with eye tracking to determine how engaged subjects
were with the advertising to which they were exposed
– Subjects were exposed to television advertising from 24 national
brands; each brand had a corresponding ad in either Newspaper, Radio,
Online Video or Online Display
– Television advertising proved to be more engaging and generated
higher recall that all other media included in the study

The Advantages of Television over
Radio
• Most people have the radio on “for noise”. They are usually
otherwise engaged with something else while listening, and
often are only half listening.
• Radio makes it difficult for the listener to take physical action
as a result of the advertising message (ex. Needing to find a
pen in response to hearing a phone number or store location)
• Radio is not visual, most people retain information much
better when they see it as opposed to just hearing it.

message as TV impacts the consumer’s several different senses
simultaneously.
– As outlined in various studies, people identify TV as the medium they
find to be most effective, engaging, and persuasive.
– The visual capabilities of television allow for better retention of
information and brand awareness on the part of the consumer.
