Heineken brand had the highest dwell time as percentage of the total AOI visibility<br />
(4735,8 milliseconds). This might also be explained through the way the message<br />
was encoded: the particular scene had no dialogue, potentially avoiding the product<br />
placement having to compete with other sources of information. Moreover, the<br />
scene itself contained only one sequence of actions, namely the character lifting up<br />
the bottle, consuming it and putting it back down: as such the product placement<br />
complies with the criteria to be described as the used by character placement (Yang<br />
and Roskos-Ewoldsen, 2007), giving it a higher level of prominence than merely<br />
background placements. This could have contributed to the elevated dwell time. On<br />
a side note, due to the sequence of actions in this particular scene, it would be possible<br />
for the AOI of the bottle to overlap with a fictitious AOI (Bojko, 2013), being<br />
the face of the actor: the heat map, shown on figure 21, shows at lower kernel size<br />
that the gaze is indeed primarily focussed on the bottle as brand element.<br />
