Background: The current study examined how the interplay between message frame and vaping norms impacted college students' responses to prevention messages, from lens of deviance regulation theory. Objectives: College students (N = 231) were randomly assigned one seven conditions in a 2 (message frame: positive, negative) by 3 (manipulated norm: high, low, none) + 1 control (recycling) between-subjects experiment. Participants' preconceived norms, history, health harm addiction beliefs also...

As the COVID-19 pandemic poses severe threats to human life around globe, effective risk messages are needed warn public and encourage recommended actions for avoiding infection, especially as steps taken ease physical restrictions restart economies. The present study examines effects of agency assignment reference point on perceptions SARS-CoV-2 threat assesses key message responses, including psychological reactance, source derogation, counterarguing, behavioral intentions. Participants (N...
We sought to examine the relationship between perceived message effectiveness (PME) and actual (AME) in a 3-week randomized trial of vaping prevention advertisements. Participants were US adolescents (
Psychological reactance theory (PRT) posits that when individuals' perceived freedoms are threatened or restricted, they become aversively aroused and motivated to reestablish those freedoms, leading a state of psychological reactance. Applying PRT, this study examined the effects controlling language, fear, disgust appeals on responses COVID-19 vaccination promotion messages. Participants were randomly assigned one eight conditions across language (high/low), fear wherein viewed two...
In 2017, New York City (NYC) passed a minimum floor price law (MFPL) to raise the of pack cigarettes $13.00. Evaluation MFPL in NYC is limited and has yet examine its potential as proequity policy.
Adult attachment style is a key for understanding emotion regulation and feelings of security in human interactions as well the construction caregiving system. The system group representations about affiliative behaviors, which guided by caregiver's sensitivity empathy, mature young adulthood. Appropriate perception interpretation infant emotions crucial component formation secure relationship between caregiver. As styles influence ways people perceive emotional information, we examined how...
With tightened regulations on cigarette marketing and decreased smoking, the major tobacco companies quickly shifted their expenditures in recent decades to maintain profits. We investigated United States from 1975 through 2019 examine trends over past 45 years.
While research on youth vaping prevention has begun to grow, little work examined language choice in messages. This study adolescents' responses statements that varied three features: behavioral framing, linguistic certainty, and target specification. We conducted a 2 (behavioral framing) by (linguistic certainty) (target specification) 3 (risk type) plus control condition between-subjects experiment using national probability sample. Adolescents (N = 1,603) were randomly assigned one of 25...
Background: The prevalence of vaping among young people is a public health crisis. Social norms can contribute to the problem, but also solution. Objective: current study examined adults' responses anti-vaping messages that varied on two features: social and behavioral framing. Methods: College students (N = 270) were randomly assigned one five conditions in 2 (social norm: dynamic norm, static norm) X (behavioral framing: vaping, not vaping) between-subjects factorial design with no message...
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) developed a public education campaign, Real Cost, that reduced youth susceptibility to tobacco product use. We sought identify the mechanisms may underlie impact of Cost ads on vaping inform prevention campaigns. Our online randomized controlled trial (clinicaltrials.gov, identifier NCT04836455) examined large sample adolescents ( n = 1,348) who had multiple exposures or control videos over 3-week period in 2021. To examine potential mediating...
There is broad evidence indicating that contextual information influence the processing of emotional stimuli. However, attachment theory suggests styles contribute to ways in which people perceive events. To shed light on whether body expressions during different scenes modulated by styles, attachment-related electrophysiological differences were measured using event-related potentials. For avoidantly attached group, our results suggested larger N170 amplitudes educed neutral bodies than...
This experiment explores the effects of agency assignment and self-construal on responses to tornado preparedness messages. Participants (N = 276) were randomly assigned one four conditions crossing self-construal. Results found threat associated with greater perceived susceptibility threat, whereas was primarily severity, such that those primed interdependent showed marginally increased perceptions severity relative independent Self-construal did not appear moderate attitudes or behavioral...
The statistical inference of the reliability and parameters stress–strength model has received great attention in field analysis. When following generalized progressive hybrid censoring (GPHC) scheme, it is important to discuss point estimate interval multicomponent (MSS) model, which stress strength variables are derived from different distributions by assuming that follows Chen distribution Gompertz distribution. In present study, Newton–Raphson method was adopted derive maximum likelihood...
