The purpose of this study is to examine that student
consumers' favorable types of the heterosexual love
could be discriminated from their attitudes toward the
same love appeals in TV commercials. Respondents were
asked that what types of the heterosexual love, among
'traditional', 'modern' and 'reverse' relationships,
they might like best, and they might evaluate the heterosexual
love appeals in the commercials by the five point scale,
'agree to disagree', in the three areas of cognitive,
affective and connotative response. In result, 86% of
the respondents including male students prefered the
'modern' type, and the more female and the younger,
the higher ratio was. The females were more cognitively
positive than the males to the 'modern' type and the
males more connotatively positive to the 'traditional'.
The result of the discriminant analysis was significant
in the case of 'modern' and 'reverse', which it could
be told that the student consumers who prefered the
two types of love favored the same love appeals in TV
commercials.
