Building Trust and Inclusivity
Stigmatised groups, including lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer‐identifying (LGBTQ+) individuals, face increased vulnerability to infectious diseases, such as HIV/AIDS, coronavirus disease (COVID‐19), and mpox (monkeypox). Layered and intersectional stigma limits healthcare access and public health participation, making trust and inclusivity essential in crisis management and risk communication. This study examines the impact of risk c…
Visually Framing Disasters
The present study seeks to systematically describe how humanitarian aid organizations use visuals in their natural disaster-related social media messages and to analyze their effects on social media engagement. Using Rodriguez and Dimitrova’s (2011) four levels of visual framing, we performed a content analysis of 810 tweets from 38 aid organizations. The results showed that, overall, the organizations’ visuals had an emphasis on victims and on d…
The Influence of Stigmatizing Messages on Danger Appraisal
Drug overdose is a leading cause of injury and death in the United States, and opioids are among the most significant of causes. For people with opioid use disorders (OUDs), opioid stigma can lead to devastating consequences, including anxiety and depression. Still, mass media may stigmatize people with OUDs by ascribing stigmatizing labels (e.g., “opioid addict”) and other stigma features to those individuals. However, it is unclear how these st…
Increasing Perceived Risk of Opioid Misuse
Risk perception is a critical determinant for individuals’ health behavior change, especially for behaviors with distal future consequences. Building on construal-level theory, this study investigates if and how thinking concretely about the negative consequences of opioid misuse influences people’s risk perception toward opioid misuse. Two message cues – images and concrete (vs. abstract) language – are proposed to influence concrete thinking an…
When Crises Hit Home
Evolving Best Practices in Crisis Communication
The COVID-19 pandemic started in January 2020 and has rapidly spread around the globe. Among the institutions at the forefront of responding to COVID-19 are U.S. colleges and universities. These institutions frequently face crises, but they have not always managed these episodes successfully. Given the gravity of the pandemic, best practices research can help higher education institutions combat public health crises and other threats. This study …
How Organizations in Different Cultures Respond to Crises
Global organizations often fail in their crisis responses and exacerbate crisis damage with their culturally tone-deaf handling of crises. Using a content analysis of 281 crisis cases in the United States (n = 149) and South Korea (n = 132) from 2008 to 2018, this study examines differences in organizations’ crisis responses based on culture. The findings indicate that organizations in South Korea simultaneously used multiple crisis response stra…
How Mobile Home Residents Understand and Respond to Tornado Warnings
Mobile home residents experience higher fatality rates from tornadoes than “fixed home” residents. Yet, research on how mobile home residents understand and respond to tornado warnings is lacking. Such research can help meteorologists and their partners better communicate tornado risk. We conducted four surveys with residents of the southeastern United States. This region has the highest concentration of tornado fatalities and killer tornadoes, i…
Cry Wolf Effect? Evaluating the Impact of False Alarms on Public Responses to Tornado Alerts in the Southeastern United States
On average, 75% of tornado warnings in the United States are false alarms. Although forecasters have been concerned that false alarms may generate a complacent public, only a few research studies have examined how the public responds to tornado false alarms. Through four surveys (N = 4162), this study examines how residents in the southeastern United States understand, process, and respond to tornado false alarms. The study then compares social s…
Crime and Weather in Singapore
The monthly totals of armed robbery, sexual offenses, theft outside dwelling, theft of motor vehicles, theft of bicycles, theft in dwelling, and housebreaking were statistically tested against temperature, effective temperature, and Webb's index of comfort and rainfall. The analysis showed that crimes against the person are generally positively correlated with temperature and discomfort, a result in agreement with the situation in temperate count…
