This research investigates the cognitive perceptual process that homeowners go through when faced with decision to protect themselves from risk of wildfires. can be examined by looking at interaction between integrated protection motivation theory—transtheoretical model and different levels homeowners' subjective knowledge related wildfire risks. We investigated role motivation, stages readiness, on number risk‐mitigating actions undertaken living in high‐risk communities. The results...
Various theories suggest that the perceived similarity of objects facilitates transfer knowledge, affect, and intentions from one object to other. However, there is disagreement as meaning how it should be operationalized among these various theories, no effort relate measures another exists in literature. In an empirical study, authors examine relationships product three different contexts: (1) goal-congruent products, (2) moderately goal-incongruent (3) extremely products. The results...
A series of experiments manipulated product supply to investigate the effects on usage. Subjects were presented with containers filled various amounts a and asked indicate how much they would use. Consumers tended conserve diminishing resources so that amount indicated use generally decreased as decreased. Container size fill level container did not influence used.
Diminished use of goal-directed (“model-based”) decision-making is a hallmark transdiagnostic compulsivity, promoting an over-reliance on inflexible and habitual behaviours. However, the origin this impairment remains unclear. Here, we test hypothesis that these impairments arise due to uncertainty within internal world model subserves decision-making. We adapted validated gamified task characterise how individuals build environment, pairing data with computational modelling uncover exact...

Abstract Marketers and public policy makers continue to be plagued with the problem of creating effective communications, which can increase probability complying risk avoidance behavior related smoking. Using Terror Management Theory (TMT) as a theoretical basis, we provide rationale why traditional anti‐smoking appeals focusing on negative health consequences are not impactful. We use implications theory predict show that an appeal social exclusion should more motivating than encourage...
While maladaptive consumption and its consequences are well known, the management regulation of such is fraught with numerous issues related to definition, locus responsibility, potential modes intervention. The present article provides a review conceptual, methodological, policy surrounding consumption. authors suggest that marketing has an important unique role in design products intended address Questions for future research public identified discussed.
Abstract Common consumption behaviors may become harmful to consumers. Maladaptive is the result of an increase in frequency or amount everyday, normal (adaptive) behaviors, which cause significant harm consumers and society. The authors explore maladaptive behavior investigate how important insights about lie at intersection harm. Consequently, discussion focuses on marketers policymakers, through their strategic approach, can both encourage mitigate behavior. Understanding transition from...
AbstractFamilies represent an important context for understanding and addressing the various forms of risk experienced by consumers. This article defines discusses concept as it applies to familial unit, with a particular focus on liminal transitions that occur within families resiliency required identify adopt effective coping strategies manage these transitions. A framework is proposed offers researchers approach applying concepts related family consumption-related problems issues....
Addiction does not begin with the harmful effects of being dependent on a particular consumption behaviour such as smoking, alcohol, or illegal drugs. Instead it starts everyday seemingly benign behaviours that, through psychological, biophysical, and/or environmental triggers, can become and morph into an addiction. We develop framework based harm dependence that help researchers better understand how consumers could addicted to various types (e.g., texting, shopping, plastic surgery, other...
Abstract Research based on the terror management health model demonstrates that highlighting death as a consequence of risky behavior can lead to unintended responses communications. In two studies, we investigate whether form social loss message frame motivate someone change his or her prevent negative consequences. Study 1, compare and physical mortality print messages in context “texting while driving.” Overall, opposed facilitate greater intent reduce behaviors when death‐related...
Why individuals choose to mitigate, downplay, or ignore risk has been a topic of much research over the past 25 years for natural- and human-created risks, such as earthquakes, flooding, smoking, contraceptive use, alcohol consumption. Wildfire relatively recent focus in natural hazard literature, perhaps result several catastrophic fires western United States. The desire many live areas that provide wildland amenities led significant population migration into rural, forested West,...
In this monograph, we build on the risk communication and psychology of information processing decision-making literatures, while extending work through an explicit discussion philosophical foundations communication, regulations, implications for policy decisions. addition, explore multidimensional context in which individuals confront risks make trade-offs with respect to costs benefits specific situations. We discuss various examples risk-related products behaviors, are offered illustrate...
