The Marketing Scales Handbook is indispensable in identifying how constructs have been measured and the support for a measure's validity and reliability. I have used it since the beginning as a resource in my doctoral seminar and as an aid to my own research. An electronic version will make it even more accessible to researchers in Marketing and affiliated fields.
Attitude Toward the Ad (General Nostalgia)
The ten-item, seven point Likert-type scale is intended to measure the degree to which a person experiences positive affect toward an advertisement because it evokes some memory of the person's past. The scale was called evoked nostalgia by Muehling and Sprott (2004) and general nostalgia evoked by the ad by Muehling and Parscal (2011).
