Follow on Google News | Anthropomorphic animal mascots in advertising - how do consumers respond?New research by Cass Business School highlights the response of consumers to anthropomorphic animal mascots.
By: Cass Business School Despite this constant use of animals to represent different characteristics, the research of their use in branding and marketing is relatively sparse. Therefore little has been discovered about how consumers react to these images when confronted with them, leaving those who put these images into practice with little idea of how best to use them. The study tested responses to visual anthropomorphic portrayals of animals in popular culture based on their most basic physical similarities to humans. The research found that when presented with an anthropomorphic representation of an animal, viewers preferred a higher similarity to humans, but the opposite when the animal possessed non-anthropomorphic traits.
