Abstract
This article explores minors' awareness and understanding of advertainment and influencer marketing on mobile devices, along with their moral and evaluative responses. Through 35 in-depth online interviews with Spanish minors (10-14 years old), the study finds that recognition and understanding of these advertising techniques increase with age, but overall, minors' primary reaction is indifference. The research emphasizes the need to improve minors' critical thinking skills to better navigate hybrid advertising messages.
