Gender flexibility A short version of the COAT scale Whether it was appropriate for "only men," "only women," or "both men and women" to do Whether the trait was appropriate for "only boys," "only girls," "both boys and girls," or "neither boys nor girls”
Introduction Reflection Methodology Results Conclusion
Results ,[object Object],Most of the participants put effort into examining the stimulus ad. 44.1 % participants said they put a lot of effort. 43.4 % participants said they put some effort.
Results H1: When exposed to advertising with gender content,  children  with high gender flexibility  will have significantly  more  positive attitudes  than will children with low gender  flexibility for both attitude toward the ad and attitude toward  the brand. H2:  Gender content in advertisements significantly moderates  the relationship  between gender flexibility and children's  attitude toward the ad and the brand.
Conclusion 1. The results support  gender flexibility being  significantly  related to both attitude toward the ad and attitude toward the brand.  2.  The gender of the ad characters  was a  significant moderator for attitude toward the ad. 3. Incorporating  incongruent gender elements  together in children's ads can adversely affect  children's attitude toward the brand.

Editor's Notes

  1. Yet, to date, most advertising studies examining how this gender-related content might influence attitudes toward advertising have focused on adult consumers. Nor has the consumer socialization literature closely examined gender issues related to children's responses to advertising (Ekstrom 2003; John 1999).
  2. To address this gap in the literature, this paper develops a conceptual framework, based on a synthesis of developmental psychology literature, to understand how children develop attitudes toward advertisements with gender-related content. Next, to examine the conceptual framework, the results of an experimental design study with eight- and nine-year-old children are reported, confirming the key relationships posited in the conceptual framework. Managerial and public policy implications based on this study are discussed.
  3. When will gender-related content be salient and how will it be interpreted in the formation of attitudes toward the ad?
  4. This paper addresses this gap in the literature by developing a conceptual framework based on biological, socialization, and cognitive factors for understanding how children form attitudes toward advertisements with gender-related content.
  5. . To ensure that all participants would be able to understand the questionnaire, the interviewer read each question, waiting for participants to answer, then proceeded to read the next question, and so forth. The entire data collection process took approximately 15 to 20 minutes. At the end of the process, participants selected a "fun" pencil as a reward for their participation. Schools were also provided a nominal monetary contribution for their cooperation with the study.
  6. ( only in second and third) Over a one-month period Interviewed in groups of 2-10 children
  7. a 3 X 3 experimental design a 3 X 3 experimental design was developed, using print ads created for the purpose of the study. The completely randomized factorial design had two treatments: characters in the ad (only male, only female, or both male and Spring 201039 female) and product (masculine product, feminine product, or neutral product).
