Protecting One's Own Privacy In A Big Data Economy, Anita L. Allen
Protecting One's Own Privacy In A Big Data Economy, Anita L. Allen
All Faculty Scholarship
Big Data is the vast quantities of information amenable to large-scale collection, storage, and analysis. Using such data, companies and researchers can deploy complex algorithms and artificial intelligence technologies to reveal otherwise unascertained patterns, links, behaviors, trends, identities, and practical knowledge. The information that comprises Big Data arises from government and business practices, consumer transactions, and the digital applications sometimes referred to as the “Internet of Things.” Individuals invisibly contribute to Big Data whenever they live digital lifestyles or otherwise participate in the digital economy, such as when they shop with a credit card, get treated at a hospital, apply …

How Female Online Businesses And Brands Are Using Instagram Stories, Hannah N. Vanderslice
College of Journalism and Mass Communications: Theses
Instagram is one of the newest forms of social media that impacts its audience on a visual level, since the content is centered on photos and videos. Their newest feature, Instagram stories, is temporary videos and/or photos strung together to form a gallery, which has been compared to Snapchat’s version of live stories. Instagram stories offer a unique opportunity for businesses to take advantage of the temporary, 24-hour platform that shows specific frame-by-frame analytics that help create efficient and compelling content to repost permanently that helps organic search engine optimization. As a cost-effective means of advertising, early adopter large and …
Market Reach And Advertising Medium: Assessing How Students Learn About Research Services, Stephanie Wiegand
Market Reach And Advertising Medium: Assessing How Students Learn About Research Services, Stephanie Wiegand
University Libraries Faculty Publications
Promotion of services is something we discuss often in libraries; however, it is rare to find a comprehensive promotion plan for research services or any evaluation of promotional services beyond case studies of a specific promotion. How do we know where to place our time and efforts if we have not assessed how students learn about research services? In the 2015-2016 academic year, the Library Research Services department at the University of Northern Colorado Libraries set out to answer this question. Surveys were sent to individuals contacting a librarian for in-depth research assistance. The goal of this survey was to …

OBJECTIVE: To investigate how food commercials influence children's food choices.
STUDY DESIGN: Twenty-three children ages 8-14 years provided taste and health ratings for 60 food items. Subsequently, these children were scanned with the use of functional magnetic resonance imaging while making food choices (ie, "eat" or "not eat") after watching food and nonfood television commercials.
RESULTS: Our results show that watching food commercials changes the way children consider the importance of taste when making food choices. Children did not use health values for their food choices, indicating children's decisions were largely driven by hedonic, immediate rewards (ie, "tastiness"); however, children …
[Preprint] Does Deceptive Marketing Pay? The Evolution Of Consumer Sentiment Surrounding A Pseudo-Product-Harm Crisis, Reo Song, Ho Kim, Gene Moo Lee, Sungha Jang
[Preprint] Does Deceptive Marketing Pay? The Evolution Of Consumer Sentiment Surrounding A Pseudo-Product-Harm Crisis, Reo Song, Ho Kim, Gene Moo Lee, Sungha Jang
College of Business Administration Faculty Works
Slandering of a firm’s products by competing firms poses significant threats to the victim firm. The resulting damage can be as large as the one from a product-harm crisis. Unlike a true product-harm crisis, the disparagement is based on a false claim, thus we call it a pseudo-product-harm crisis. Using a pseudo-product-harm crisis event that involves two competing firms, this research examines how consumer sentiments evolve surrounding the crisis. Our analyses show that while both firms suffer, the damage is severer to the offending firm (which causes the crisis) than to the victim firm (which suffers from the false claim) …
Snapple: Integrated Advertising Campaign, Hayley Renneker
Snapple: Integrated Advertising Campaign, Hayley Renneker
Mahurin Honors College Capstone Experience/Thesis Projects
The National Student Advertising Competition is a competition college chapters of the American Advertising Federation can participate in. This competition has a corporate sponsor, this year being Snapple, which gives students the opportunity to write an integrated marketing campaign that addresses real advertising challenges Snapple is currently facing. I managed a group of 19 peers and worked for several months to come up with a solution to their current problem. We created a 27-page campaign book outlining the research we conducted, the target consumers, a “big idea,” creative execution, media plan, media budget, and campaign measurement. Our “big idea” carried …
27 Floors Of Support: Effectively Advertising Campus Resources To College Students, Amanda Peerce
27 Floors Of Support: Effectively Advertising Campus Resources To College Students, Amanda Peerce
Mahurin Honors College Capstone Experience/Thesis Projects
College campuses provide a large variety of resources to college students to help ensure their well-being and success; however, students cannot utilize these resources if they do not know they exist. While there has been extensive research on the importance and efficacy of resources on college campuses, not as much research has been done on how to advertise these services to college students. The goal of this project is to create and assess the efficacy of a campaign educating and encouraging students to seek out campus resources in times of need. This project focuses primarily on promoting resources to first-year …
Ad Revenue Optimization In Live Broadcasting, Dana G. Popescu, Pascale Crama
Ad Revenue Optimization In Live Broadcasting, Dana G. Popescu, Pascale Crama
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
In live broadcasting, the break lengths available for commercials are not always fixed and known in advance (e.g., strategic and injury time-outs are of variable duration in live sports transmissions). Broadcasters actively manage their advertising revenue by jointly optimizing sales and scheduling policies. We characterize the optimal dynamic schedule in a simplified setting that incorporates stochastic break durations and advertisement lengths of 15 and 30 seconds. The optimal policy is a "greedy" look-ahead rule that accounts for the remaining number of breaks; in this setting, there is no value to perfect information at the scheduling stage, and hence knowing the …
State Lotteries And The New American Dream, Jonathan D. Cohen
State Lotteries And The New American Dream, Jonathan D. Cohen
Occasional Papers
This paper analyzes state lotteries in the economic and cultural context of the late twentieth century. As access to traditional meritocratic advancement declined, many Americans perceived lotteries as new means of attaining increasingly elusive upward mobility. Their turn to lotteries was facilitated by grassroots coalitions as well as lottery advertisers who claimed lotteries as effective means of making money. The relationship of lotteries and social mobility reveals the full implications of lottery playing in the United States and the reasons this form of gambling has assumed new importance as providing access to the American Dream.

The Future Of Advertising: What You Should Know, Valerie K. Jones, Rishad Tobaccowala
College of Journalism and Mass Communications: Faculty Publications
We live in an empowered age with empowered consumers. Technology has become a slingshot enabling each of us consumers to defeat Goliath, the big companies and marketers. Consumers have god-like power, able to see, hear, discover, and uncover almost anything through all of the devices available today. Digitization, globalization and demographic shifts are requiring us to replace old models of thinking about communication and advertising. The chapter introduces new models of thinking about about the future of advertising, guided by a few fundamental principles: delivering utilities and services, as opposed to a message; reaggregating audiences, as opposed to segmenting them; …
Does Advertising Indicate Product Quality? Evidence From Prelaunch And Postlaunch Advertising In The Movie Industry, Reo Song, Sungha Jang, Gangshu (George) Cai
Does Advertising Indicate Product Quality? Evidence From Prelaunch And Postlaunch Advertising In The Movie Industry, Reo Song, Sungha Jang, Gangshu (George) Cai
Information Systems and Analytics
Literature on the informative role of advertising indicates that advertising quantity can serve as an indicator of product quality. As product life cycles grow shorter, firms in many industries spend significant amounts on advertising during the prelaunch period to create large initial demand. Thus, the role of prelaunch advertising may differ from that of postlaunch advertising, and a proper understanding of these differences is important. This study provides an empirical investigation of whether advertising is a reliable indicator of quality before and after product launches, using the data from the movie industry. Analyses of 1078 movies released during 2003–2011 show …
