Information Processing Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM): People take time to consider messages to make rational decisions. Central route: Giving high degree of attention to core
elements. “We do chicken right!”. Peripheral route: Giving less attention on core elements,
but high attention on other cues such as music and background pictures.
Hedonic, Experiential Model (HEM): The tendency to maximize pleasure while minimizing pain. Paying attention to elements of the message related to emotions and feelings that maximize pleasure. Central route: “Malaysia, truly Asia” Peripheral route: Pictures at the background and music.
Route depends on Motivation: Importance of product and cost. Ability: Desire to use cognitive skills.

Difficult to modify or create new linkages.
