title: Effects of circadian orientation, time of day, and arousal on consumers' depth of information processing of advertising.
abstract: Since depth of information processing, as defined by MacInnis and Jaworski in 1989 has been shown to influence the strength of the relation between the intent to purchase and the attitudes toward the advertisement, this paper focused on the interactive effects of three antecedents of information processing, arousal, circadian orientation, and time of day (Morning vs Evening). Analysis indicated that deeper information processing is reached by 65 morning-oriented consumers who are exposed to advertisements in the morning and by 52 relaxed consumers who are exposed to advertisements in the evening. Theoretical explanations and managerial implications are proposed.
