Imagine you are in a store and see a product with the label "LIMITED EDITION - TODAY ONLY!" What will you do?

Select an answer:

I will stop and check if the advertisement is affecting me more than it should. I will feel the urge to buy a product even though I haven't searched for it before. I'm wondering why this product should be limited, and I'm looking for alternatives. I am interested in whether it is a real limited offer or just a marketing trick. I ignore advertisements and make decisions solely based on my needs.

On social media, you see an ad for a product that you recently searched for online. How do you react?

Select an answer:

I feel strange – as if I am being watched. I am curious about how the algorithm that showed me the advertisement works. I take it as a normal part of the digital age and maybe I'll take another look at the product. I will start paying more attention to what ads are shown to me and why. I ignore advertisements and focus on other things.

Imagine you had to create an advertisement for a product that you do not believe in. How would you approach that?

Select an answer:

I would be looking for a way to make advertising ethically and without manipulation. I would try to find positive aspects of the product that could be true. I would refuse the offer even if it were financially advantageous. I would consider it a challenge — to find a way to make the advertisement convincing. I would only do it if I had no other option.

Competitions like "Buy and Win!" – what do you think about them?

Select an answer:

I see them as manipulative techniques to increase sales. Sometimes I participate, but only if I would buy the product even without the competition. I don't pay attention to them, I mostly don't believe that ordinary people really win. I am interested in the psychological mechanisms that are behind this. I often participate – maybe one day I will be lucky.

Advertisements often use famous personalities. How do you perceive that?

Select an answer:

I understand that it is a strategy, but it doesn't have a big impact on me. I am interested in why the given celebrity decided to promote a specific product. I feel that I am being manipulated, and I have an aversion to such products. If I like a given personality, I may be more willing to try the product. I will be influenced if the personality seems trustworthy to me.

The brand claims that its product is "eco-friendly and sustainable." How do you respond?

Select an answer:

I will look at specific facts that confirm this. I take it with a grain of salt because many companies use "green marketing" just to improve their image. I will be pleased with that and I am more likely to buy the product. I will check if the product has certifications from independent organizations. I am interested in what the company's overall approach to sustainability is, not just this one product.

In the advertisement, you see a story that evokes strong emotions in you. How do you react?

Select an answer:

I'm wondering what techniques they used to elicit my emotions. I will let myself be carried away by the atmosphere, if it appeals to me, I might buy the product. I pay attention to whether the advertisement is truly related to the product or just plays on emotions. I understand that it's about marketing, but I appreciate the creative approach. I enjoy ads as short films, but they do not influence my buying behavior.

In the store, you see a product labeled "Best seller in its category." What do you think about that?

Select an answer:

It may be true, but that doesn't necessarily mean he is the best. I am wondering whether it is real data or just a marketing trick. It gives me a certain confidence that the product is popular. I am interested in who verified this data and on what basis. I do not consider it an important criterion when deciding to buy.

Watching ads on YouTube or television – how does it affect you?

Select an answer:

I don't like it and I try to skip ads. If the advertisement is creative, I can enjoy it. I notice what strategies they use to grab attention. I don't care, advertisements are a part of life. Sometimes ads present me with something useful, but mostly I ignore them.

What do you think about statements like "95% of customers recommend this product"?

Select an answer:

I am looking for the source of this statement and the method by which the survey was conducted. I am interested if this is not just taken out of context. I take it with a grain of salt – I know that the numbers can be manipulated. If there are real reviews, I can consider it a plus. I do not pay attention to it, I decide according to my own judgment.
