Native advertising: Deception or engagement
Abstract: Native advertising, or paid content designed to resemble the editorial content on the site on which it is published, comprises a rapidly growing segment of online advertising.

This chapter will provide an overview of current practices in native advertising, a review of relevant empirical research from previous similar forms of advertising. After an introduction to the state of native advertising practices and the importance of understanding its effects.
