As the most complex organ in the human body packing tremendous processing power, it\u2019s not surprising that your brain sometimes cuts corners to save its resources. In psychology, this shortcut is known as a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellmind.com\/what-is-a-schema-2795873\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">cognitive schema<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">, a framework that our brains use to \u201chelp us organize and interpret information\u201d as quickly as possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">The positive applications of this brain trick are plentiful: as children, schemas help us learn languages and develop basic social skills. The potential for negative impact, however, is just as high. Schemas can lead us to exclude pertinent new information in favor of what we already know, operate on prejudice, or make false associations unknowingly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Understandably, brain activity as it relates to advertising is a growing topic of interest for marketers. Our recent study, <a href=\"https:\/\/go.integralads.com\/the-halo-effect.html\"><strong>The Halo Effect<\/strong><\/a>, evaluates how an ad&#8217;s environment impacts how viewers react to it. Likewise, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nngroup.com\/articles\/banner-blindness-old-and-new-findings\/\">Nielsen Norman Group studies on Banner Blindness<\/a> explore how cognitive schemas can hurt an advertiser\u2019s ability to reach a desired audience.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a deeper look into three examples of cognitive schemas that impact consumer perception of ads.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Availability Bias \/ The &#8220;Hot Potato&#8221; Effect<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">As part of Nielsen\u2019s research, the group conducted an intensive eye-tracking study that attempted to map patterns of eye movement on a web page as a proxy for attention. What they found was that many internet users operate on <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">availability bias<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">, in which viewers assume where an ad will appear on a page based on one or a few examples of where previous ads have appeared. The impact of this schema is that it often causes visitors to automatically overlook \u201chot\u201d areas where ads typically appear. In their own words:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">\u201cOn the web, the <\/span><b>hot-potato scanning pattern<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\"> occurs when users gaze at an item in which they are not interested, then look away and avoid fixating on that area on that page \u2013 and sometimes on other pages on the website, and even on completely different websites.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">In other words, if your ad appears in a &#8216;hot&#8217; area, like the teal sidebar below, it\u2019s best to make sure you make a great first impression, or risk being overlooked.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-103775 aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Halo-Effect-Follow-Up-Graphics_v3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"700\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>2. The Gestalt Rule of Proximity<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">Aside from placement on the page, the surroundings of an ad also inform potential impact. Gestalt psychology uses six distinct principles to dictate the subconscious associations and conclusions we draw visually when we look at a set of objects. They are: similarity, closure, continuation, symmetry, figure and ground, and proximity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-103782 aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Halo-Effect-Follow-Up-Graphics_Gestalt-v1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">The laws of proximity and similarity are those that are most often associated with ad placement, respectively stating that objects that are close to one another and that have a common shape, size, texture, or color are often grouped together by the mind. This schema may be part of the reason ads are overlooked when they appear alongside unsavory content: once the user forms a mental model about the type of content they are seeing, the adjacent ads are <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nngroup.com\/articles\/closeness-of-actions-and-objects-gui\/\">poisoned<\/a>\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\"> by association. Simply put, context matters.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>3. The Halo Effect<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">Speaking of context, the &#8216;halo effect&#8217; is already a well-documented <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellmind.com\/what-is-the-halo-effect-2795906\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cognitive bias<\/span><\/a>, most often associated with the perception we have of people when our brain takes shortcuts by association. Many refer to it as the physical attractiveness bias, or the foundation of the old adage that \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/socialcognition3330n.wordpress.com\/2018\/01\/18\/halo-effect-what-is-beautiful-is-good-and-personality-evaluation\/\">what is beautiful must also be good<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">In our study <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/go.integralads.com\/the-halo-effect.html\">The Halo Effect<\/a><\/strong>, we explore this cognitive bias relative to advertising. Commissioned by our team at IAS in partnership with Neuro-Insight, the study works by mapping three key factors that indicate how your ads are perceived: favorability, engagement, and memorability.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-103789 aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Halo-Effect-Follow-Up-Graphics_Brains.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">The study found that ads on high-quality sites were 74% more likable than those on low-quality sites. Not only that \u2013 ads that were negatively perceived in a low-quality environment had a greater emotional intensity, indicating an <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\">active<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\"> dislike or irritation toward these ads.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Takeaways<\/h3>\n<p>Research on cognitive schema presents indisputable evidence that ad environments have an impact on consumer perception. So what does this mean? While it may seem tedious, taking a science-based approach to creating strategies as marketers and advertisers is more important than ever. Consider the following when creating your next campaign:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\"><strong>Make a great impression<\/strong>. Leverage enticing, creative design and copy to minimize the Hot Potato Effect and capture attention before availability bias directs consumers&#8217; eyes away from your ad placement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: 'Open Sans',Tahoma,sans-serif;\"><strong> Go beyond brand safety<\/strong>. The laws of proximity and similarity influence the way consumers perceive your brand, which means the quality of the ad environment matters. Consider The Halo Effect your guide: ensure your ads are aligned with content that is not just safe, but also suitable for your brand to generate positive, memorable experiences.
