Abstract:
|
This study will investigate the differences in physiological, cognitive and emotional responses to emotional anti-drinking messages between high risk takers (i.e., rebels) and low risk takers. Particularly, the study will compare the responses to humor appeal messages and the responses to fear apppeal messages. College students identified as either high risk takers or low risk takers will view both fear and humor anti-drinking television messages. Their heart rate (index of attention), SCRs (index of physiological arousal) and facial EMG (index of valence/emotion) will be measured. Further, this study will examine whether using either fear appeal or humor appeal likely leads to desired changes in the viewers’ perception and or attitudes toward heavy drinking. |
