However, in response to this figure, viewers reported high levels of counterarguing (as well as low attitude toward the ad and low brand attitude). It appears that the self-report measure of counterarguing was at least partially reflective of a more general evaluation by the participant, such as attitude toward the ad or attitude toward the brand, instead of the extent to which the participant counterargued. Therefore, the results from the self-report measure of counterarguing are inconclusive. More direct evidence was obtained by Brennan and Bahn (2006), who used a traditional thought-listing task to determine whether including a rhetorical figure in REDISCOVERING THEORY 37 an ad inhibited counterarguing.
