  • Affective Responses to Counter-Attitudinal Testimonials Drive Persuasive Effects

    Open Access•J Watts, Michael D Slater et al.•ARTICLE•Communication Research•2025

    Overtly persuasive narratives such as testimonials pose significant challenges for theories of narrative persuasion. Such theories argue that overt persuasive intent diminishes entertainment and entertaining narratives reduce counterarguing. We propose that testimonial narratives instead have persuasive advantages through their ability to arouse message-consistent emotions and reduce affective reactance to the messages. Participants ( n = 1478) w…

  • Exploring the Influence of Open-Mindedness and Social Identity on Opinion Polarization in a Modified Hegselmann-Krause Model

    Open Access•Ashwin Ramaswamy, František Kalvas et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Artificial Societies…•2025

    In this article, we further develop agent-based simulations on an extended Hegselmann-Krause (HK) model with social identity dynamics.In Kalvas et al. ( 2023) we introduced a model of opinion dynamics in which agents were bounded in communication based on differences in opinion and identity, the latter being modeled as dynamic group assignments dependent on the state of the opinion space at any given time and the observer's sensitivity to opinion…

  • Postexposure engagement with more and less eudaimonic films

    Jared M Ott, Michael D Slater•ARTICLE•Psychology of Popular Media•2024

  • Testimonials as motivators

    Open Access•J Watts, Emily Moyer-Gusé et al.•ARTICLE•Human Communication Research•2024•Referencias: 51

    Persuasive testimonials are common in commercial, nonprofit, and public health contexts. They pose challenges to existing theories of narrative persuasion because they are typically both narrative and overtly persuasive. Prior research has suggested testimonials may be effective with counter-attitudinal recipients by decreasing negative affective responses and increasing meaningful affect. Often, however, testimonials may address behaviors that a…

  • Increasing Alcohol Control Policy Support

    Open Access•Melissa M Foster, Michael D Slater et al.•ARTICLE•Substance Use & Misuse•2021

    Background: Mass media messages have the potential to reduce alcohol-related harm through increasing support for alcohol-control policies. Objectives: In Study 1, we experimentally examined the incidental effects of alcohol mention in news articles about accidents and crime and found evidence that messages mentioning alcohol as a causal factor in the accident or crime can activate empathic and emotional responses, which in turn increase support f…

  • Associations between Cognitive and Affective Responses to Tobacco Advertisements and Tobacco Use Incidence

    Open Access•Brittney Keller‐Hamilton, Hayley Curran et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2021

    Exposure to tobacco advertisements is associated with initiation of tobacco use among youth. The mechanisms underlying this association are less clear. We estimated longitudinal associations between youths' cognitive and affective responses to advertisements for cigarettes, e-cigarettes, and smokeless tobacco (SLT) and initiation of these products. N = 1220 Ohio-residing boys of ages 11-16 were recruited into a cohort in 2015 and 2016. Participan…

  • Eudaimonic Media in Lived Experience

    Open Access•Jared M Ott, Naomi Q P Tan et al.•ARTICLE•Mass Communication & Society•2021•Citada por: 2•Referencias: 7

    The present study examines the self-reported impact of viewing more versus less eudaimonic Hollywood films using a retrospective study design. We investigate the role of three novel constructs in understanding people’s lived experience of eudaimonic narratives. These include two outcomes: acceptance of the human condition, or the perception that a film helped the viewer accept that inevitable challenges in life contribute to a meaningful existenc…

  • Impact of the Climate Matters Program on Public Understanding of Climate Change

    Open Access•Teresa Myers, Edward W Maibach et al.•ARTICLE•Weather, Climate, and Society•2020

    Climate Matters is a localized climate change reporting resources program developed to support television (TV) weathercasters across the United States. Developed as a pilot test in one media market in 2010, it launched nationwide in 2013; in the autumn of 2019 more than 797 weathercasters were participating in the program. In this paper we present evidence of the impact of the Climate Matters program on Americans’ science-based understanding of c…

  • Adolescent males’ responses to blu’s fake warnings

    Brittney Keller‐Hamilton, Megan E Roberts et al.•ARTICLE•Tobacco Control•2019

    Adolescents viewing an advertisement with a fake warning were less likely to recall the advertisement's actual warning or health risks. Although e-cigarette advertisements now carry large FDA-mandated warnings, this tactic could be used for cigarette advertisements that continue to carry small warnings in the USA. Findings underscore the necessity of tobacco advertisement surveillance and study of advertisements' effects on adolescents

  • Promoting Persuasion With Ideologically Tailored Science Messages

    Open Access•Kate T Luong, R Kelly Garrett et al.•ARTICLE•Science Communication•2019•Citada por: 2•Referencias: 49

    Motivated reasoning in response to disconfirming science information presents a challenging barrier to science communication. This article presents a novel approach to emphasis framing, in which functionally equivalent information is framed using ideologically consistent values and tailored to the audiences. In contrast to traditional framing approaches, science information is held constant across frames and only interpretations of the informatio…

  • A safe space for self-expansion

    Open Access•Nathan Silver, Michael D Slater•ARTICLE•Journal of Social and Personal…•2019•Citada por: 4•Referencias: 54

    Insecure attachment places enduring limitations on one's ability to satisfy important intrinsic needs. An increasing body of literature suggests that such barriers may motivate engagement with stories such as absorption into fictional worlds, sharing experiences and forming relationships with characters, and even pursuing vicarious satisfaction of unmet needs. Moreover, this sort of engagement has been demonstrated to drive narrative influence, f…

  • Self-transcendent Media Experiences

    Open Access•M B Oliver, Arthur A Raney et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Communication•2018

    Interest in the meaningful sides of media entertainment has blossomed over the last decade, with numerous scholars examining how certain media content can enhance social good and well-being. Because social scientific work in this area is relatively new and is rapidly evolving, numerous conceptualizations of meaningful media experiences have been introduced. In this paper we argue for the importance of recognizing a unique form of media experience…

  • Partisan Media Selectivity and Partisan Identity Threat

    J A Long, W P Eveland et al.•ARTICLE•Mass Communication & Society•2018•Citada por: 3•Referencias: 45

    There is growing concern about the polarizing impact of citizens primarily choosing sources of political information consistent with their existing partisan perspective. Although research has begun providing answers about the consequences, questions remain about what factors drive such selective use of political media. This study conceptualizes partisanship as a social identity and the decision to selectively use like-minded political media as a …

  • Mediated Wisdom of Experience Revisited

    Michael D Slater, M B Oliver et al.•ARTICLE•Human Communication Research•2018•Citada por: 6•Referencias: 34

    This experiment, using excerpts from three Hollywood films, indicates that eudaimonic (meaningful) narratives increase willingness to accept delayed rewards (i.e., reduce delay discounting) and acceptance of death, mediated by the effect of eudaimonic narratives on perceived closeness to future self. Our findings provide support for the argument, and its derivation from socio-emotional selectivity theory, that the vicarious experience of life's t…

  • Alcohol harm reduction advertisements

    Open Access•Kimberley Dunstone, Emily Brennan et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2017

    Some message attributes have been employed more frequently than others, suggesting several promising avenues for future audience or population-based research to compare the relative effectiveness of different characteristics of alcohol harm reduction ads. Given most alcohol-attributable harm is due to long-term disease, these findings suggest future campaigns may fill a potentially important gap if they were to focus on long-term harms. There is …

  • Entertainment and Expanding Boundaries of the Self

    Open Access•Benjamin K Johnson, Michael D Slater et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Communication•2016

    The temporarily expanding boundaries of the self (TEBOTS) model identifies challenges faced by the self as a fundamental impetus for engagement with mediated narratives. To test how everyday pressures on the self influence enjoyment, appreciation, and immersion into narrative worlds, this study used self-affirmation to alleviate the everyday demands of self-concept maintenance, in an experimental design. When self-affirmed, people experienced les…

  • Combining Content Analysis and Assessment of Exposure through Self-Report, Spatial, or Temporal Variation in Media Effects Research

    Michael D Slater•ARTICLE•Communication Methods and Measures•2016•Citada por: 2•Referencias: 3

    An interest in media effects is in most cases an interest in the effects of various types or instances of media content. The more information that researchers capture about such content, the more meaningful inferences about effects can be. Therefore, approaches to media effects research in which researchers first analyze the content of interest and then study impact of exposure to instances of such content has much to recommend them. One such app…

  • Reinforcing Spirals Model

    Michael D Slater•ARTICLE•Media Psychology•2015

    The Reinforcing Spirals Model (RSM, Citation Withheld) has two primary purposes. First, the RSM provides a general framework for conceptualizing media use as part of a dynamic, endogenous process combining selective exposure and media effects that may be drawn on by theorists concerned with a variety of social processes and effects. Second, the RSM utilizes a systems-theory perspective to describe how patterns of mediated and interpersonal commun…

  • Temporarily Expanding the Boundaries of the Self

    Open Access•Michael D Slater, Benjamin K Johnson et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Communication•2014

    A wide variety of motivations for engaging with narratives have been proposed and studied. We propose that underlying these motivations is another, more fundamental motivation. Our premise is that maintenance, defense, and regulation of the personal and social self in daily life are demanding both emotionally and cognitively. Moreover, any individual self is constrained by capability, situation, and social role. Stories and identification with st…

  • Fear and Anger Responses to Local News Coverage of Alcohol-Related Crimes, Accidents, and Injuries

    Open Access•Catherine E Goodall, Michael D Slater et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Communication•2013

    An experiment investigated emotional reactions to news on policy support. Stimuli were selected from a nationally representative sample of local crime/accident news, and a nationally representative online panel of U.S. adults. Stories were manipulated to mention or not mention the role of alcohol. Anger elicited by stories increased blame of individuals, whereas fear increased consideration of contributing societal factors. Mention of alcohol inc…

  • Reducing Stigma and Out-Group Distinctions Through Perspective-Taking in Narratives

    Open Access•Adrienne H Chung, Michael D Slater•ARTICLE•Journal of Communication•2013

    We examine how viewers' narrative involvement is impacted by a character's membership in a highly stigmatized group. In particular, we explore how perspective-taking with a character, a dimension of the identification construct (J. Cohen, 2001), influences in-group/out-group perception. Participants viewed 1 of 2 edited versions of the film Sherrybaby, where the main character was manipulated to be relatively more stigmatized (recovering drug add…

    The impact of entertainment-education messages on beliefs, attitudes, and behavior is typically explained in terms of social cognitive theory principles. However, important additional insights regarding reasons why entertainment-education messages have effects can be derived from the processing of persuasive content in narrative messages. Elaboration likelihood approaches suggest that absorption in a narrative, and response to characters in a nar…

  • Race and Ethnic Representations of Lawbreakers and Victims in Crime News

    Eileen E S Bjornstrom, Robert L Kaufman et al.•ARTICLE•Social Problems•2010•Citada por: 31•Referencias: 18

    Research on racial-ethnic portrayals in television crime news is limited and questions remain about the sources of representations and how these vary for perpetrators versus victims. We draw from power structure, market share, normal crimes, racial threat, and racial privileging perspectives to further this research. The reported race or ethnicity of violent crime perpetrators and victims are modeled as functions of: (1) situational characteristi…

    In persuasion and message effects research, involvement is simultaneously one of the most theoretically and empirically useful concepts, and among the most problematic. Involvement is typically invoked to characterize audience members' relationship to the content of a message as well as to explain how that relationship influences their processing of that message, thereby determining message effects. The problem of audience members' relationship t…

  • Television Dramas and Support for Controversial Public Policies

    Open Access•Michael D Slater, Donna Rouner et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Communication•2006

    In this experiment, we examine effects of television dramas on support for controversial public policies (gay marriage and the death penalty) and explore mechanisms that may explain such effects.
