How does sensory adaptation affect advertising effectiveness how can marketer overcome sensory adaptation?

sensory adaptation is a phenomenon that occurs when consumers get exposed to one ad for a long period that ad no longer provide sensory input to be noted, therefore, it causes a head-ace to marketers in developing new ads and campaigns, because if they don't then consumers will get too adapted to the current ads and campaigns that they will no longer see them. some of the ways marketers apply to overcome sensory adaptation and increase sensory inputs are: (1) experiential marketing, that is, providing consumers the chance to try the product. (2) sophisticated inserts and pop-ups, for instance, a small sample of a perfume of shampoo inside a magazine. (3) ambush advertising, that is, placing ads in places where consumers can not avoid them.

Some are and some are not. However, they are likely to have sensory issues, such as being oversensitive to certain types of stimulation (visual, aural, tactile, etc.), which can cause stress reactions that make them appear to be overactive.


Why does your child with autism or Asperger's Syndrome stim?

Stimming is repetitive self-stimulation - sometimes to show happiness but usually to calm. Autistic people have sensory issues, when overwhelmed by sensory stimulation or stressed stimming creates a strong predictable sensory stimulation to drown out other sensory stimulation. It's a means of self-regulating to reduce discomfort from sensory stimulation.

Why are some kids that are autistic like spinning objects?

Not all autistic children spin, some display other 'stimming' behavior. Stimming is a means of self-stimulation, often used by autistic people to regulate sensory input as a means of keeping themselves calm or expressing emotions. Autistic people have sensory problems, it's not that their senses are stronger but that what they feel neurologically from their senses is stronger to the point where it can cause discomfort. Stimming is a way of controlling sensory input, rather than a bunch of sensory stimulation from the environment around them autistic people will stim in order to give themselves one very clear form of stimulation that they control. Spinning is just one example of this, another example is rocking. For example I'm autistic and when I'm upset I tap my fingers: the feeling of the finger tapping and the sound of the tapping is a strong constant rhythm of touch and sound so it's easy to focus on that rather than the mass of irregular sounds or sensations around me.
