In a study with 320 Canadian participants, we explore the effect of perceived physical and non-physical anthropomorphism of an Embodied Conversational Agent (ECA) and the perceived actual and subjective age difference between an individual and this ECA on the ECA’s likeability and credibility. We also explore the effect of likeability and credibili...
Social media are increasingly popular for delivering branded content to consumers worldwide. A central task for researchers is to understand what consumer brand-related motivations and brand appeals drive consumer engagement and benefit brand outcomes across different cultures. Based on the Uses and Gratifications theory, this study explores how in...
Drawing on recent research and debates in social sciences, this paper situates replication in an advertising research context. We clarify the role of replication in the field and outline the challenges inherent in replication studies in advertising research. We further elaborate on how researchers should engage in replication research to increase t...
In two studies, this paper examines how perceived personalization in advertisements on social media affects brand engagement and ad avoidance. Using a preregistered between‐subjects cross‐sectional survey (n = 794), we tested four different moderated mediation models with perceived creepiness and perceived relevance as competing mediating variables...
This paper explores the influence of different social media platforms’ characteristics for use intensity (i.e., time spent and emotional connectedness), which in turn partially affects the development of consumers’ online brand-related activities (COBRAs). Using a U.S.-based sample of 939 adult social media users, we tested three serial mediation m...
In this chapter, using a cross-sectional survey distributed to a selected set of over-the-top (OTT) subscribers (n = 15,184), we explore the drivers of OTT services consumption to better understand the changes taking place in the audiovisual industry that are currently redefining the shape of the global television map. OTT streaming services are vi...

On social media, sales promotions (monetary incentives, prize promotions, product promotions) are often used to incentivize brand engagement (likes, comments). However, their effectiveness is under-researched. We explore how the textual presentation and the social media type (Facebook, Instagram) affect engagement with different sales promotion typ...
In our international study of seven countries, we found that the academic-practitioner divide is as real today as it was three decades ago. The divide, which is more pronounced in some regions, is likely to worsen as society becomes more digitally complex, exacerbated by the lack of industry experience among young scholars entering academia in some...

Using a previously untested similarity contingency model of country stereotypes, this study assesses the effects of country stereotypes, perceived country similarity, and their interplay on emotion-driven punitive intent toward foreign, wrongdoing companies. In Study 1, positive country stereotypes (warmth, competence) mitigate punitive intent by d...
The rise of social media has dramatically impacted how individuals experience the digital world. They interact, express, share and create content about anything on social media, including brands. Social media are used by brands to engage consumers through several activities. Drawing on the consumers’ online brand-related activities (COBRAs) typolog...
In the setting of four FIFA World Cups, this article examines the effect of the national team participation and other variables as predictors of football matches audience size. It compares not only the audience of those matches with/without the presence of the national team during the same tournament (as prior research), but also the audience of ma...
Using a six-dimension uses and gratifications (U&G) framework, we explore how social media use motivations drive consumers' online brand-related activities (COBRAs: consumption, contribution, and creation of brand-related content). We examine these relationships for different social media types by drawing on two previously suggested dimensions, nam...
In a US-sample of Facebook and Instagram users (n = 463), the moderation role of connectedness with the social medium on the relationship between social media use motivations and consumers’ brand-related activities (COBRAs) on social media (consumption, contribution, creation) is studied. Remuneration and Empowerment motivations drive brand-related...

Four types of platforms are analysed using Zhu and Chen's (2015) social media matrix, as the relation between socia...
