IAT-effects were averaged across the three levels of the factor brand cue (following the non-significant main effect in the ANOVA) and subsequently compared to direct measures.
As expected, there was no main effect observed for the other factor, brand cue, F(1.51, 37.77) = 1.05, p = .34, ns.
As a test of external validity we varied stimuli in the perceptual domain (i.e., through the three levels of the factor brand cue: logo, signature, product).
In both studies, the factor brand cue was not significant and therefore accounted only for minor variations of the adapted D measure means within each of the six attribute dimensions.
