Abstract

ABSTRACTMobile apps show a heavy usage pattern and compelling growth figures. This study seeks to examine consumers' attitudes toward in-mobile advertisements in terms of mobile advertising value. The samples are from the United Kingdom (UK) and India because the nationals of these countries exhibit a high degree of dissimilarity in a number of Hofstede's cultural dimensions. The findings suggest that factors such as perceived entertainment, credibility, and information significantly improve attitudes toward in-app advertisements, and that the effectiveness of these advertisements is based on cultural differences. The participants from India exhibited more positive attitudes toward in-app advertisements than their counterparts from the UK. The entertainment factor had a greater impact on Indian, while credibility and information had a more significant impact on smartphone users from the UK.
