Sophie Boerman (University of Amsterdam and Wageningen University & Research) explores the concept of advertising literacy and uncovers the effectiveness of pictograms: small symbols designed to warn kids about sponsored content. This talk aims to clarify a very important question: how can we effectively create informed online consumers?
