| description |
The purpose of the dissertation is to examine the process of consumers „reading‟ the
media advertising of motorcycles. This is an interpretive study to understand the perception
prior to consumption, or consumption of advertising. Consumers‟ understanding and sense
making of media advertising as well as their reaction towards the interpreted media
advertising were studied.
In detail, an Interpretive phenomenology study was conducted of the cognitive
responses of twenty four postgraduates at a higher learning institution in Sarawak, so as to
explore rather than explain the experience of meaning construction when viewing the
motorcycle videos. The narratives of the participants‟ understanding process were audio
recorded, transcribed and analysed. The results identified seven stages of participants
interpreting the motorcycle videos – absorption, anticipation, articulation, alignment,
appropriation, alienation, and analysis. These „moments‟ or stages can be supported as a
process of understanding by referring to phenomenology. Participants of the study authorised
accounts of the narrative‟s content by using their own cultural knowledge, aligning with or
being alienated by their perceptions of the bike branding narratives, further building the
brand. The dissertation is of practical value to the advertisers and marketers who plan to
develop media advertising of motorcycles as it provides research on consumers‟ needs and
preference for the type of media advertising and hence can be taken up when planning such
advertisements in order to design advertisements with features that are most salient to the
audience who are always actively interpreting the narratives while reading them. The results
iii
from this dissertation will also add to the empirical database on interpretive marketing
research in Malaysia. |
