How motivation moderates the effects of emotions on the duration of consumption
Article Abstract:
Motivation and pleasure are two factors that have been proven crucial in analyzing the duration of consumption experienced by consumers. It was shown that advertisements, wherein pleasure and arousal are injected, tend to draw the interest of consumers better and solicit more energetic response from them. Results further revealed that consumption duration may be made more optimal by employing an inverted-u grid approach, where the level of arousal rises with the increase in pleasure.
