Abstract

The usage of Internet is getting widespread, and the service of online video is getting more and more popular. The revenue of the web service providers comes mostly from the advertisements. This study investigates the attitudes toward the advertisements while watching online videos in YouTube. We followed the research of users' attitudes toward advertisements (Brackett & Carr, 2001) and combined it with the theory of reasoned action and the flow theory in the psychology. This study investigates the factor affecting attitudes toward advertisements and the influence to behaviors. Our findings show that the model explained most of the variance of attitudes toward advertisements in sites providing services of online videos indicating that the model is confirmed in the situation of online video advertising. The conclusion and managerial implications have further discussions.
