To explore the mediating role of measures of persuasion in the relationship between risk perceptions and intentions.
The first study included 413 obese subjects (mean age = 45.3 years); the second study, 781 overweight subjects (mean age = 46.6 years). All measures were assessed by self-report.
Feelings and intervention judgments were mediators in the relationship between risk perceptions and intention to eat healthier, do more physical activity (study 1) and intention to reduce saturated fat (study 2). Feelings was the only mediator in the relationship between risk perceptions and intention to stop smoking (study 1).
Future interventions targeting risk perceptions to increase intentions are likely to be more effective if subjects find the information emotionally impactful, credible, and engaging.
探讨说服措施在风险认知与意图之间关系中的中介作用。
第一项研究纳入了413名肥胖受试者(平均年龄=45.3岁);第二项研究纳入了781名超重受试者(平均年龄=46.6岁)。所有测量均通过自我报告进行评估。
在风险认知与更健康饮食、增加体育活动的意图(研究1)以及减少饱和脂肪的意图(研究2)之间的关系中,情感和干预判断起到了中介作用。在风险认知与戒烟意图(研究1)之间的关系中,情感是唯一的中介因素。
如果受试者发现信息在情感上有影响力、可信且引人入胜,那么未来针对风险认知以增加意图的干预措施可能会更有效。
