source: PBCThe study, conducted by GFK and Kantar Millward Brown, used eye-tracking technology on 300 respondents, both regular print readers and non-readers. It analyzed ad reception in:
- daily newspapers
- and luxury women’s magazines.
The study focused on so-called long fixations, or gazes at an ad lasting more than 180 milliseconds. It also measured emotional engagement, indicated by pupil dilation.
- The number of fixations (over 180 ms) on contextual print ads is 67% higher,
- the average gaze duration on contextual ads is 30% longer than on standard ads,
- emotional engagement with contextual ads is 44% higher.
The results also showed that regular readers engage more with ad content than non-readers. However, the study’s main conclusion is the same for both groups: contextual advertising in print media is more effective, and print itself conveys a more complex marketing message.
The study also compared print advertising results with those of online ads. Both print readers and non-readers were more receptive to print ads.
Number of Fixations on Ads
- 4.1 - print ad (readers)
- 3.7 - print ad (non-readers)
- 2.9 - online ad (readers)
- 2.8 - online ad (non-readers)
- The difference of one fixation is a significant difference - emphasizes Waldemar Izdebski, president of Polskie Badania Czytelnictwa, commenting on the study results on the PBC website. - Print advertising allows readers to notice one more element of the ad.
More details about the study results are available on the Polskie Badania Czytelnictwa website.

Brand visibility in the age of algorithms

A few years ago, everything was simpler. It was enough to have a good website, do SEO, run a blog, and publish on social media. Whoever was systematic was visible. Whoever invested in content and positioning gained customers. That world no longer exists.
Queue psychology. Scientists' discovery used in Call Centers
Andrzej Sowula
The discovery first described by psychologists in the second half of 2024 concerns the so-called "relative progress effect". When customers observe fast service at the beginning of their wait, they tolerate slower service much better later in the waiting period.
