MSI Webinar: Ad-vancing Diversity: Evaluating the Impact of Diversity in TV Advertising on Consumer Purchase Intention

This study presents a longitudinal view of racial diversity in TV advertising, illustrating varying strategies among brands in response to evolving social norms and expectations on racial diversity. It highlights how societal events catalyze changes in advertising practices, influencing the representation of Black actors in TV ads. We also provide an empirical analysis of how racial diversity in TV ads affects consumer purchase intentions. The results shows a shift in consumer behavior before and after high-profile social incidents like George Floyd’s murder, emphasizing the need for a nuanced understanding of diversity in advertising.
