These relationships can be influenced by the interaction between the gender of the respondent and the gender of the model (opposite sex effect).

Results show that such effect influences the attitude towards the advertisement while it does not emerges whit reference to attitude towards the brand and purchase intention. Implications for advertising and brand management are discussed. Keywords: sexual stimuli, opposite sex effect, print advertising, attitude towards the brand, attitude towards the advertisement, purchase intention.
