The interviewing, scheduled to begin in early October, 1977, will take place in one of two metro N.Y. shopping centers among random cigarette smokers. Each participant will be at least 21 years of age and will be 1/? pack smokers/day (or more). Additionally, approximately equal (60-40) sex quotas have been setup for each test execution. In total, 500 random smokers (100 per advertisement) will participate in this program. Key Criteria For Analysis The primary objective of this exploratory research program is to see which ones, if any, the 5 test advertisements communicates the desired low tar content/good taste strategy fr~vorabl,y for True. Additionally, it is of major importance to ascertain whether or not the copy wording "unexpected taste" used in 2 of the test advertisements should be further rnjrsued. itescarch Limitations It is the concerted opinion of client and agency MRD that the setting up of stringent evaluative criteria at this early stage of True's campaign development for 1978 would be premature. Accordingly, the research was designed so that the "success" or "non-success" of each test advertisement toward meeting our primary objective (and others) would be in the main SUBJECTIVE rather than (totally) objective.
