Abstract
When a well-executed advertising message creates a believer in the eff ectiveness of the sponsor's product, that believer may be motivated to ''try harder'' in using the product to achieve desired results. If in fact the advertising precipitates extra effort and if that extra effo rt actually contributes to product effectiveness, the advertising that precipitated it has added significantly to how effective the product actually will be.
