<p>Advertising is something that we get in touch with on a daily basis and more or less everywhere. Advertising is used in different mediums, such as magazines, television, radio, internet, cellphones et.c. The aim of the present study is to find out if there are any recurrent dissimilarities how advertising is constructed among the mediums regarding rhetorical and semiotical theories. Two different mediums have been chosen for a comparison, printed advertisments versus internetbanners. The study has been based on a total of ten qualitative image analyses. To get a spread among the input material regarding the adverts, five different types of businesses have been chosen from a set of criteria that has been decided for this specific study. From every type of business, one advertisment from magazines or newspapers and one type of internetbanner have been chosen and have resulted in a total of five pair of matches which has been analyzed with an image analysis model. The result of this study clearly showed that there are recurrent dissimilarities among the two analyzed mediums. Adverts in magazines or newspapers contained generally more text than the internetbanners did, the adverts in papers also used more arguments than the internetbanners. The result also showed that the adverts in the papers contained more rhetorical figures than the internetbanners did. One potential reason why there were less text in the internet banners may be due to the phenomena called Banner blindness and the differences of the mediums.</p> / <p>Reklam är något vi kommer i kontakt med dagligen mer eller mindre överallt.

Resultatet av undersökningen visade konkret att det finns återkommande skillnader eftersom tidningsannonserna innehåller mer text och fler argument än internetbanners. Vidare finns det också en skillnad mellan medierna då tidningsannonser har en tendens till att innehålla fler retoriska figurer än vad internetbanners gör.

[pt] A veiculação indiscriminada de informação na internet prejudica o processo de visualização de diversos tipos de banner e de lembrança das suas mensagens, uma vez que os anúncios precisam disputar a atenção do público com o restante da página e transmitir a sua informação com eficiência. Uma pesquisa experimental foi desenvolvida com o objetivo de identificar tipos de banner capazes de melhorar o processo de visualização e de lembrança da sua mensagem. Participaram do experimento 36 pessoas, utilizando-se 6 formatos específicos de banners, entre os que ocupam uma posição específica na tela (full-banner, leaderboard, rectangle e wide skyscraper) e os que abrem sobre o conteúdo das páginas (floating e pop-up). Através de questionários e entrevistas, descobriu-se os formatos mais visualizados, a lembrança da mensagem e a opinião dos participantes em relação aos banners. O pop-up e o floating foram mais vistos. No entanto, as pessoas os consideraram incômodos e irritantes. O full-banner foi o terceiro tipo de banner mais visualizado na tela, seguido pelo leaderboard, sendo que estes dois foram classificados como os preferidos. Nenhum dos 6 tipos de banner ofereceu bons índices de lembrança da sua mensagem. A utilização dos banners que ocupam uma posição específica nas páginas da internet, como se fossem anúncios de jornais e revistas, é recomendada frente aos resultados obtidos. Discute-se a priorização do uso do full-banner e do leaderboard, tendo em vista que o pop-up e o floating irritaram os participantes, enquanto o rectangle e o wide skyscraper não obtiveram taxas significativas de visualização. / [en] The indiscriminate spreading of information on the internet causes bad visualization and recall processes of different types of banners, since an advertisement has to capture public´s attention among many others stimuli in order to transmit its message efficiently. An experiment was conducted with 36 participants to investigate the effects of 6 types of banner and improve these processes: 4 of them occupying a specific position on the page (full-banner, leaderboard, rectangle and wide skyscraper) and 2 over-the- page banners (floating and pop-up), collecting data also from questionnaires and interviews. Results showed that the pop-up and floating types were the most recognized, but the participants found them annoying. The full-banner was the third most seen, followed by the leaderboard, both classified as preferred. No type of banner provided good indexes of message recalling. The use of banners that occupy a specific position on page is recommended, as do advertisements in papers and magazines. Preferring full-banner and leaderboard is discussed, since pop-up and floating annoy people, while rectangle and wide skyscraper did not show significant frequencies of visualization.

Le développement de la publicité sur Internet et la présence croissante de la musique dans notre vie quotidienne nous a conduit à étudier les bannières publicitaires sonores. Partant des travaux antérieurs, nous tentons de comprendre l’effet de la musique sur l’attitude de l’internaute en faisant varier le genre musical et le tempo. Nous avons étudié l’impact des caractéristiques musicales sur les réponses à la publicité, mais aussi le rôle de la préférence, de l’activation, de la typicalité ainsi que ceux du type d’implication et de l’expertise musicale de l’internaute. Dans cette étude, des échelles sont adaptées et validées dans le contexte turc. Notre étude a montré que les influences affectives et cognitives de la musique pouvaient agir en même temps sur les réponses à la publicité. La présence de musique augmente la mémorisation de la bannière. La cohérence entre le tempo et le genre musical favorise la préférence. C’est pourquoi ces deux éléments, faciles à manipuler, ne doivent absolument pas être négligés dans une campagne publicitaire. En outre, le rôle de l’implication est démontré permettant un meilleur ciblage des internautes. / The development of Internet advertising and the increasing presence of music in our daily lives oriented us to investigate the audio ad banner. Based on previous work, we attempt to understand the impact of music on the net surfer’s attitude varying the types of music and the tempos. Thus, we studied the impact of the characteristics of the music on the responses to advertising, but also the role of the preference, the activation and the typicality, implication and musical expertise of net surfer. In the study, scales are adapted and validated in the Turkish context.The study showed that the affective and cognitive influences of the music can influence together responses to advertising. The music, by its presence, increases the memorization of the banner. Consistency between the tempo and type of music supports the preference. Therefore, these two easy to manipulate elements must not be neglected in a campaign. In addition, the results related to the implication should help in targeting Internet users.

This study of the literary magazines published in Kentucky between 1800 and 1900 consists of material derived from the following sources: The Louisville Public Library; ti1e State and Kentucky State Historical Society libraries, Frankfort; the Lexington Public Library, Transylvania, and University of Kentucky libraries, Lexington; the public libraries of Paris, Covington, Newport, Cincinnati, and Nashville; the Western Kentucky State Teachers College library, Bowling Green; and also the newspaper files of the Nashville Banner, the Lexington Herald, the Paris Kentuckian-Citizen, and the Courier-Journal. I wish to make it clear that this study is of literary magazines only. Other phases might have entered into the study, such as politics and religion, but this study concerns the magazines for their literary qualities alone.

The case of late Qing China is of great importance to theories of economic development. This study examines the question of why China¡¯s industrialization was slow between 1865 and 1895 as compared to contemporary Japan¡¯s. Industrialization is measured on four dimensions: sea transport, railway, communications, and the cotton textile industry. I trace the difference between China¡¯s and Japan¡¯s industrialization to government leadership, which includes three aspects: direct governmental investment, government policies at the macro-level, and specific measures and actions to assist selected companies and industries. Compared to the Meiji government, the Chinese government¡¯s role in all of the three aspects was insufficient. Furthermore, I explore why the Chinese government did not lead China¡¯s economic development efficiently. The Manchu question¡ªManchu rule of Qing China and Manchu supremacy over other ethnic groups¡ªtriggered ethnic rebellions between the early 1850s and the early 1870s, which severely undermined the government in economic, political, and military terms. Ethnic rebellions in turn were caused by the government¡¯s unequal ethnic policies that had established an ethnic hierarchy in the empire. Moreover, the government spent a disproportionate amount of funds on the Manchu stipend to financially support the group compared to the government¡¯s investment in modern industries. The Manchu question surfaced after 1895 in the sense that pro-dynastic reforms attempted to deal with it. The 1911 Revolution eventually brought the Manchu question to an end.

<p>Banners är annonser som finns på de flesta webbsidor. Användare är oftast ute på Internet med syftet att leta efter specifik information. Vid informationsökning används troligen ett speciellt kognitivt schema som gör att användaren undviker att fokusera på banners eftersom informationen som eftersöks inte antas finnas i banners. Om en navigering på Internet görs för lik en banner ser inte användaren den heller. Man kan säga att banner blindness är en tendens hos användaren av webben att ignorera banners, även när de innehåller information som användaren aktivt söker. Detta examensarbete undersöker om banners lättare kan kommas ihåg när ämnet överensstämmer med webbsidans text. En experimentell studie genomfördes med två betingelser, en grupp fick kontextberoende och den andra fick kontextoberoende banners. Medelvärdena visade att det var lättare att komma ihåg kontextoberoende banners, men inget signifikant säkerställt resultat erhölls. Resultatet kan ha påverkats av att det var få försöksdeltagare</p>

<p>This paper is about advertising on the Internet using banners. Together with Embryo Webbyrå we have tested a lot of different ways of advertising on the online newspaper of Göteborgs-Posten, gp.se. Two of the web bureau’s existing clients, Resia and Recip, were chosen for the ads and the whole campaign lasted a period of four weeks.</p><p>By comparing our banners with the consideration of format, color, placement and content we wanted to find an answer to how the most optimal banner would look.</p><p>Our test result shows that visitors rather do not want to click on a banner, although we think that we have seen some interest and curiousness from visitors in the banners content. Even when the visitor does not click on a banner, the message might be put in mind for a future purchase or act.</p>
