dcterms.abstractThis study investigates the factors contributing to active engagement for virtual influencer videos. By integrating the elaboration likelihood model and social identity theory, our proposed theoretical framework elaborates on the relationship between various features of influencer videos and engagement rates. Further, it demonstrates that video character types could moderate this relationship. We found that visual features such as brightness, colorfulness, and vividness, which are processed through the peripheral route of information processing, have a more pronounced influence on engagement rates in animated character videos than in human-like character videos. In contrast, the content topics discussed in the videos, which are processed through the central route of information processing, exert a stronger influence on engagement rates in videos featuring human-like characters than in animated character videos.
