Usability testing and interviews
4 key factors that are important:
- Recognizability
- Credibility of the advertiser
- Perceived control
- Information utility
Readers prefer native advertisements over paying for online news. Most readers also prefer native ads over banner ads and pre-roll video ads, due to perceived control (banner ads and video ads are more intrustive).

Iab edelman berland native advertising consumer research studySusan Borst
It is a maxim among sophisticated marketers that clicks are a relatively meaningless metric. What matters most is the degree to which consumer attitudes can be formed and reshaped by advertising and marketing communication and then translated into sustainable behavior that benefits marketers and their brands. IAB and Edelman Berland conducted the following study, "Getting Sponsored Content Right: The Consumer View," in order to understand how consumers perceive and feel about in-feed sponsored content. Do consumer attitudes differ by media vertical? Ultimately, the goal is to enable publishers, marketers, advertisers, and agencies to ensure that sponsored content meets consumer expectations and succeeds.
The research focuses on the news genre, specifically general news, business news and entertainment news..

Marketers now understand that content creation and distribution are not isolated initiatives. Crafting a successful content engagement strategy means understanding how consumers differ based on social platform and tailoring that content appropriately. For instance, Facebook is the best way to reach women between 18 and 29, and success requires instant responsiveness and availability. Tumblr and YouTube are where Millennials hang out, and they don’t rely as much on real-time engagement. Visual content gets more engagement on Pinterest and Instagram, and Twitter is where most people go to complain. How do brands optimize each channel and customize the distribution of content? This is the battleground that will heat up in 2014.
According to Forrester, consumers trust expert opinions 6x more than advertising when deciding what product to buy. But earned media is impossible to control and difficult to scale. Until now. Read this research paper from inPowered and Marketing Evolution to understand how major brand marketers are leveraging their earned media, written by trusted category experts, to drive serious lifts in brand favorability, advocacy, and purchase intent and achieve ROI 7-14x campaign investment levels.
Science Communication - How to share your knowledge succesfully with a wider...Simone Krouwer
Shine with your #Scicomm – Ways to share your research successfully with a wider public
Would you like to share more about your work, research and / or observations with the general public (‘normal people’ ;-)) outside academia? But…- do you ‘have no idea where to start’? - do you think you ‘have nothing to tell’?- do you think that ‘a wider public won’t be interested’?- do you think it’s a waste of time because publishing is what ultimately counts? Then I welcome you to the academics-who’d-like-to-make-an-impact-but-don’t-know-where-to-start-or-what-to-tell-so-nevermind-I-keep-focusing-on-just-publishing-club!
As a postdoctoral researcher who has been diagnosed with impostor syndrome, I know the feeling. However: I have personally experienced the value of getting out of the academic comfort zone and sharing insights with a wider public (through traditional media, social media, commercial events, and a podcast). If you’d like to hear the failures, experiences, and tips from a colleague who’s simply trying to make an impact, and share own your ideas or questions with me and other colleagues, join me in this online session.
Steeds meer bedrijven maken gebruik van storytelling om hun imago als werkgever te versterken. Om aandacht te krijgen voor die verhalen wordt er vaak gebruik gemaakt van zogenoemde ‘native advertenties’ – advertenties die dezelfde vorm hebben als de gewone media-inhoud van een website. Bijvoorbeeld: een gesponsord nieuwsartikel op een nieuwswebsite. Maar wat vinden lezers van native advertenties? Hebben ze wel door dat ze naar een advertentie kijken? En wat zijn absolute do’s en don’ts?
In deze presentatie vind je de antwoorden.

Explore the differences, advantages, and strategies of using Google Ads vs Social Media Ads for online advertising. This presentation will provide insights into how each platform operates, their unique features, and how they can be leveraged to achieve marketing goals.
When most people in the industry talk about online or digital reputation management, what they're really saying is Google search and PPC. And it's usually reactive, left dealing with the aftermath of negative information published somewhere online. That's outdated. It leaves executives, organizations and other high-profile individuals at a high risk of a digital reputation attack that spans channels and tactics. But the tools needed to safeguard against an attack are more cybersecurity-oriented than most marketing and communications professionals can manage. Business leaders Leaders grasp the importance; 83% of executives place reputation in their top five areas of risk, yet only 23% are confident in their ability to address it. To succeed in 2024 and beyond, you need to turn online reputation on its axis and think like an attacker.\
Key Takeaways:
- New framework for examining and safeguarding an online reputation
- Tools and techniques to keep you a step ahead
- Practical examples that demonstrate when to act, how to act and how to recover
In today's digital world, customers are just a click away. "Grow Your Business Online: Introduction to Digital Marketing" dives into the exciting world of digital marketing, equipping you with the tools and strategies to reach new audiences, expand your reach, and ultimately grow your business.

A qualitative study on readers' evaluations of native advertisements in a mobile news app
1.
2. Exploring readers’ evaluations
of native advertisments in
a mobile news app
Simone Krouwer, Karolien Poels & Steve Paulussen
University of Antwerp
simone.krouwer@uantwerpen.be
@SimoneKrouwer
3. Non-disruptive advertising
Look and feel of news article
More attention towards the ad &
more positive evaluations
(versus traditional online advertising)
But…
Are readers aware that it’s an ad?
Disclosures are mandatory!
NATIVE ADVERTISING
(Wojdynski and Evans 2015, Becker-Olsen 2003, Van
Reijmersdal et al. 2005’; Kim et al. 2001)
4. 4
Disclosure characteristics & recognition
(e.g. “sponsored by…” “partner content”)
Persuasion Knowledge
Ad Recognition
Evaluations of advertisements
Evaluations of advertiser
Evaluations of news medium
Mixed results (Wojdynski and Evans 2015, Becker-Olsen 2003, Amazeen
and Muddiman 2017, Van Reijmersdal, Fransen et al.
2016, Krouwer Poels and Paulussen 2017)
PAST RESEARCH: MAINLY FOCUSED ON AD RECOGNITION:
5. IS IT JUST (THE LACK) OF AD RECOGNITION?
Only a few experimental studies have tested
the influence of other factors…:
Involvement with the topic (Krouwer & Poels, 2016)
Information utility (Sweetser, 2016)
Brand presence in text (Krouwer, Poels & Paulussen, 2017)
Which other factors play a role?
Readers often do not recognize disclosures… (< 25%)
(E.g. Wojdysnki, 2015, 2016)
Disclosure- and ad recognition do not always
lead to negative evaluations…
(E.g. Becker-Olsen, 2003; Carr and Hayes, 2014’; Krouwer, Poels & Paulussen, 2017)
6. All studies on native ad recognition have
displayed static web pages…
What about the disclosures before readers
click on a native ad?
▸ All previous studies have been conducted
on computers …
▸ 72% of the US news readers access news via
mobile devices!
(Reuters Digital News Report, 2016)
▸ Mobile environment might influence ad
recognition & evaluations:
Smaller screen sizes
Different user experience
Different user motivations
(e.g. Ghose, Goldfarb, & Han, 2012; Grewal, et al., 2016)
STATIC PAGE CLICKING ON AD
COMPUTER MOBILE PHONE
7. READERS’ EVALUATIONS OF NEWS MEDIA?
So far: only experimental measurements of credibility
(e.g. Amazeen and Muddiman, 2016)
What are readers’ underlying thoughts about news
media with native ads?
Does this influence the perceived autonomy of
journalists? (e.g. Deuze, 2005)
To what extent do readers feel deceived?
(e.g. Einstein, 2016)
8. RESEARCH QUESTIONS
I. To what extent and how do readers recognize native
advertisements in a mobile news environment?
II. How do readers evaluate native ads in a mobile news
app and which factors influence these evaluations?
III. What are the consequences of native advertising for
readers’ evaluations of the news outlet?
9. STUDY
Methodolody:
Usability testing (think aloud protocol)
In-depth interviews (broad variety of topics)
24 users of a national mobile news app
Mage = 40, 54% male, 70% daily user
Invited via market research company
Invited to “help improve the news app NU.nl”
13. HIGH MOBILE AD RECOGNITION (ON THE HOME PAGE!)
Simone Krouwer – University of Antwerp
Do readers actively mention that they are looking at an ad?
Results usability test:
The majority of the
readers identified the
article as advertising
Mainly on the front
page, before clicking
on the ad
The grey color &
logo of the disclosure
were most helpful
14. ”
Disclosure language (“sponsored by…”)
“I consider this more as news, as information. The article is ‘sponsored
by brand x’, but that doesn’t tell anything about the author of the
article, right?” (Male, age 47)
Positioning between the news
“I don’t think this is advertising because it is just part of the economic
news on the front page.”
(R14, female, age 49)
SOME CONFUSION...
15. 4 KEY FACTORS THAT INFLUENCED EVALUATIONS…
Native
Advertising
Simone Krouwer – University of Antwerp
Readers’
Evaluations
1. Utility
of the ad
2. Credibility of
the advertiser
3. Perceived control
4. Recognizability
16. ”
“Sometimes I see an interesting headline, and then I see that it’s
sponsored content. But oh well, if it’s interesting… It just depends on
whether it’s interesting.”
(female, age 24)
“I quickly recognise advertisements. However, sometimes you are
looking for certain information and if the advertisement provides me
that information, I am interested in reading it anyway.”
(male, age 34)
1. INFORMATION UTILITY
Information Utility theory (Ducoffe, 1995)
Media uses & gratifications
17. ”
“This advertisement is provided by a cooperation for home owners,
which is interesting to me. But as soon as it is a very commercial
organization that only wants to sell me a product, I will not read it”
(Male, age 34)
2. PRE-EXISTING ATTITUDES TOWARDS ADVERTISERS
Source credibility (Pornpitakpan 2004)
Credibility of the advertiser could possibly
outweigh perceived information utility(?)
18. ”
“I can choose whether I click on a native advertisement or not,
whereas banner advertisements are annoyingly present in the app. I
am also always scared that I will click on a banner. With native
advertisements you know that they may be sponsored, but you also
know that at least they contain information.”
(female, age 56)
3. PERCEIVED CONTROL
Native advertising = less intrusive than banner &
pre-roll video advertisements
In line with research on ad avoidance
(e.g. Cho & Cheon, 2004)
19. ”
“The first time I saw a native advertisement, I did recognize it, but I
also thought: it is annoying that you expect an article and end up
with something else.”
(Male, age 30)
4. RECOGNIZABILITY
Negative effect of deception (e.g. Carr & Hayes, 2014)
20. EVALUATIONS OF THE NEWS OUTLET
Social contract perspective: (Gordon & De Lima‐Turner, 1997)
“I simply realize that the advertisements are
necessary. They generate revenue that is needed
to maintain the news app.”
(male, age 29)
Little impact on credibility news outlet…
…But autonomy of journalists = key:
▸ Some readers thought that: “Journalists are
involved in the production of native ads”
▸ Majority of the readers:
“Any involvement of journalists in the production
of native ads would jeopardize my trust”
21. DISCUSSION / CONCLUSION
1. Mobile phones: high disclosure recognition
We need more (experimental) research in mobile environments
There’s more than (the lack) of ad recognition…
2. Readers’ evaluations depend on several factors
I. Information utility
II. Source credbility: pre-existing attitudes towards the advertiser
III. Perceived control
IV. Recognizability
▹ Future research: - more explicit disclosure language
- more- and less credible advertisers
- interaction effects with PK
3. News media: maintain the ‘chinese wall’ between
editorial & commercial departments
▹ Future research: - free versus paid online news media
- increase readers’ media literacy
22. QUESTIONS / COMMENTS?
Simone Krouwer, Dr. Karolien Poels & Dr. Steve Paulussen
Simone.krouwer@uantwerpen.be
@SimoneKrouwer
24. LIMITATIONS
The readers we had invited for the study turned out to be all rather
experienced with, and quite positive about the news app
Free digital-only publisher
Only one type of mobile device
Biases resulting from exposing readers to three specific native
advertisements could have affected their evaluations
We used one news app as a case study for this explorative
research, and therefore generalizations should be made with
caution.
25. FUTURE RESEARCH AGENDA
Mobile Native advertising:
Experimental research on mobile devices
Take the context into account!
Test content & contextual factors
Moderating effect PK?
Source credibility & information utility
Different types of news websites:
Free versus paywall
Editor's Notes
the findings suggest that the PKM (Friestad & Wright, 1994), which posits that when readers are aware that they are looking at advertising, this will lead to more scepticism and negative evaluations, might only partially be applicable in a native advertising context.
readers mainly based their opinions on whether an ad fulfils their informational needs.” Once again, I think that this is an interesting insight. Future testing could incorporate an incoming task for participants whereby they are asked to search for certain information vs not.
