VERBATIMS
The following section contains the verbatim responses
given in answer to the questions that were asked to deter-
mine what the respondent remembered about the test commer-
cial.
These verbatims are not edited. They appear exactly
as they were spoken and, consequently, some are not gram-
matically sound.
Information on the respondent's sex, age category, and
educational level and whether the respondent watched in black
and white or color are given at the end of each verbatim.
The verbatims are in two categories, related and in-
correct recall.
