Abstract: This paper examines the role of life satisfaction in consumers\u2019 reaction to nostalgic music in an advertisement. It proposes that evoking nostalgia does not necessarily lead to positive persuasive outcomes due to the reconstructive nature of past emotions. Through two experiments, we show that one’s current level of life satisfaction colors the lens through which one evaluates past life events as positive or negative and subsequently influences the effects of nostalgia. We further find that this applies more to low-involvement products where peripheral cues such as background music play a more important role in consumers\u2019 responses to advertisements. Our findings warn against blind use of nostalgic appeals in advertising, point to the need to consider the audience\u2019s state of mind, and suggest an opportunity to leverage life satisfaction influencers in designing effective advertising campaigns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
