You are Most People:
> Though people say they prefer to watch television without ads, they sometimes enjoy programs that have commercial interruptions more.
The surprising claim isn't that most people say they enjoy commercials, it's that TV programs with commercial interruptions tend to correlate with people reporting higher enjoyment of the TV program despite claiming that the would prefer less commercials.
- staticman2 4y ago"TV programs with commercial interruptions tend to correlate with people reporting higher enjoyment of the TV program" ... when watching an arbitrary TV show picked by the person doing the study. If you want to start assuming that a TV show you've chosen to watch will be more enjoyable with commercials go ahead, but that wasn't the way the study was done.
- b3lvedere 4y agoI can understand that process. Still i like personal control of my breaks :)
- detaro 4y agoOf course, TV programs with higher enjoyment are also the ones that selling ads on is more profitable, and thus are the ones with frequent-ish commercial breaks?
