attention is low, it may be instantly escalatedfor example, if an advertisement for a product in which we are interested comes on. Several factors influence the extent to which stimuli will be noticed. One obvious issue is relevance.

In many situations, consumers do not consciously set out to enumerate how positively or negatively they feel about mopeds, and when a market researcher asks them about their beliefs about mopeds, how important these beliefs are, and their evaluation of the performance of mopeds with respect to these beliefs, consumers often do not give very reliable answers. Thus, the consumers may act consistently with their trueattitudes, which were never uncovered because an erroneous measurement was made.
