Warning of persuading attempts and ambiguity within advertising contexts in Mexico
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Una reacción de las personas cuando perciben que se les está intentando convencer de algo es resistirse, ya que no desean ser manipuladas. Esta reacción se enmarca en el modelo de conocimiento de la persuasión. Por otra parte, ante un mensaje ambiguo, las personas presentan también resistencia a la persuasión, ya que buscan mensajes claros y fáciles de interpretar.
En esta investigación se analizó la actitud resultante de 145 participantes al enfrentar un mensaje sobre un producto desconocido, en cuatro condiciones experimentales, en las que se manipularon las variables de intento de persuasión —en un contexto publicitario con fines comerciales y en otro ni publicitario ni narrativo— y el grado de ambigüedad en el mensaje, ya sea lógico ordenado o en orden aleatorio (no ordenado).
Se transmitió un mensaje sobre un producto en diferentes contextos: publicitario-ordenado, publicitario-no ordenado, narrativo-ordenado y narrativo-no ordenado.
Los hallazgos para una muestra de población en México indican que la actitud de los participantes hacia el producto es menos favorable, cuando el mensaje se transmite previa advertencia del intento persuasivo e igualmente pasa como un mensaje ambiguo. Sin embargo, cuando se analiza la interacción del intento persuasivo y ambiguo, se encontró que el mensaje era más persuasivo que en el contexto solamente narrativo, lo cual constituye una oportunidad para profundizar en la comprensión del comportamiento de los receptores de mensajes en un contexto publicitario y ambiguo.
