This study explored the relationship between adolescents' viewing of specific television genres (action movies, news and music videos) and the intention to take risks in traffic. Participants were 2194 adolescent boys and girls who completed a questionnaire on television viewing, risk perception and the intention to speed and drive after consuming alcohol. As hypothesized, more news viewing was associated with a higher perceived risk of drunk driving and speeding. More music video viewing, on the other hand, was negatively associated with the assessment of the dangers of speeding and driving under the influence of alcohol. Girls regarded speeding and drunk driving as more dangerous than boys did. Contrary to our hypotheses, action movie viewing did not make a significant contribution to our models. Both news and music video viewing were indirectly, via risk perception, related to the intention to drive risky. The more dangerous a particular behavior was perceived to be, the less likely respondents intended to exhibit this behavior in the future.
本研究探讨了青少年观看特定电视节目类型(动作电影、新闻和音乐视频)与交通冒险意图之间的关系。参与者为2194名青少年男孩和女孩,他们完成了一份关于电视观看、风险认知以及饮酒后超速和驾车意图的问卷。正如所假设的那样,更多地观看新闻与更高的酒后驾车和超速感知风险相关。另一方面,更多地观看音乐视频与对超速和酒后驾车危险的评估呈负相关。女孩认为超速和酒后驾车比男孩认为的更危险。与我们的假设相反,观看动作电影对我们的模型没有显著贡献。新闻和音乐视频观看均通过风险认知与危险驾驶意图间接相关。一种特定行为被认为越危险,受访者未来表现出这种行为的可能性就越小。
