Advertising Effectiveness and Consumer Memory
The relationship between psychology and advertising is not a new one -- in fact, it is fundamental to the birth of modern advertising in America. Edward Bernays, the father of marketing, was the nephew of none other than Sigmund Freud, and used Freud's sense that "man was motivated by passion" to manipulate the senses of consumers and plant seeds of desire within consumer memory (Jones, 2000, p. 283). Since the days of Bernays, all evidence indicates that marketers have utilized cognitive psychology in order to assist advertising effectiveness in relation to consumer memory. This paper will discuss this evidence and research surrounding this association and critically analyze and discuss it.

(Snyder & Deono quoted in Kjeldal 2003, Introduction section, ¶ 6).
The results from the study Kjeldal (2003) conducted with 70 participants in two stages suggest that the word association responses high self-monitors (HSMs) produce reflect selective activation of a personally meaningful, experiential, system. The responses low self-monitors (LSMs) produce, on the other hand, indicate an intellective factual system.

Business
Internet Advertising

What group sponsors the site and what is the organization's purpose?

There is absolutely no contact or other information on the group sponsoring this site at the site itself. A search of the group's name, Internet Marketing and Advertising Association, yields the information that the group is located in Rochester, New York, and is a group of businesspeople devoted to developing advertising alternatives for the Web. Other than that, the site itself yields no information, and even more perplexing, there is no contact or advertising information on the site, so it is difficult to see how businesses find out how to advertise on the site, or contact anyone to add their listing to the site. However, a search of "who is" at Internic.net indicates the registrant is "Ultimate Search" with a mailing address in Hong Kong. The.org indicates this is a non-profit Web site, so it seems the organization is….
