"Net message topic thoughts" ?

Post by shokin »

Halo, la compagnie !

Yo tengo un problema : I don't understand the following locution :

"Net message topic thoughts"

in this text :

"Net message topic thoughts (support minus counterarguments) will be more predictive of attitudes in neutral than in positive mood conditions for an incongruent product"

As you know, my mother tongue is not english :lol: . So, if you understand this sentence, and particularly this locution, I would be glad to walk step by step.

I think it's "what people think about messages on the Net" - "thoughts, concerning topics of messages on the Net".

This should mean "If a product, advertised on the Net, doesn't correspond to the declared advantages, people are sure to consider it in a neutral, rather than positive, way".

...the way I understand it...

Thank you for your answer. It is one possible meaning.

Any others interpretations ?
