Males are significantly more likely than females to be ad aware. These results are based on a regression analysis, in which ad recognition was the independent variable, and [attitude/behavior] was the dependent variable. The results are a correlation that tells us the strength of the relationship between these variables. The odds ratio demonstrates the likelihood that an ad aware respondent will have the [attitude/behavior] vs. not having [it]. The analysis accounts for demographic variables including gender, age, race, educational attainment, household income, employment status, region, and urban city. Results are significant at the 95% confidence level. Source: Regression Analysis, Robinson & Muenster Associates, Inc.
