Facilitating social media engagement of missing persons posts
Guided by the crisis and emergency risk communication model (CERC), this two-part study identifies strategies law enforcement currently use to crowdsource missing person (MP) information, and experimentally tests message characteristics that facilitate MP post sharing on social media. In study one, quantitative content analysis of 600 MP posts on X (Twitter) and linear regression analyses indicated that timeliness, empathy, and respect predict MP…
Why Do Some Americans Resist Covid-19 Prevention Behavior? An Analysis of Issue Importance, Message Fatigue, and Reactance Regarding Covid-19 Messaging
268) were current U.S. residents over the age of 18 who completed an online survey about their perceptions of COVID-19 messaging in general as well as toward a specific COVID-19 message they recalled. Results of structural equation modeling indicated that perceived freedom threat toward a COVID-19 message was predicted positively by message fatigue and negatively by issue importance. Greater perceived freedom threat was linked to greater reactanc…
Extending psychological reactance theory to include denial of threat and media sharing intentions as freedom restoration behavior
This study extends psychological reactance theory by examining denial of a public health threat and resistance toward media sharing as two novel types of freedom restoration. Participants (N = 220) were randomly assigned to watch a video advocating COVID-19 guidelines and completed an online survey assessing corresponding perceptions and behavioral intentions. Results of structural equation modeling supported the two-step model of reactance: grea…
A mixed methodological examination of older adults’ psychological reactance toward caregiving messages from their adult children
This study extends psychological reactance theory (PRT) to family caregiving by exploring autonomy-threatening messages adult child caregivers use to gain compliance from older adult parents. Results of focus groups and interviews with older adult care recipients (Study One) and caregivers (Study Two) corroborated three types of autonomy-threatening messages, which were used to test PRT (Study Three). Older adults (N = 281) were randomly assigned…
Romantic Partner Interference and Psychological Reactance in the Context of Caregiving for an Aging Family Member
Negotiating romantic relational dynamics is inherent to family caregiving situations, which continue to be on the rise in the United States. However, despite evidence that family caregiving duties are linked to a variety of negative relational outcomes, limited research examines communication processes that contribute to or alleviate the burden of caregiver duties on romantic relationships. Guided by psychological reactance theory (PRT), this stu…
Family Caregiving Burden in Romantic Relationships
In addition to health and financial burdens, family caregivers can experience stress in their romantic relationships. Relational turbulence theory (RTT) is used to understand how family caregivers and caregivers’ romantic partners navigate relational transitions and caregiver burden when one partner is providing informal care to another aging family member. Three hundred and nineteen participants, who were either the romantic partner providing ca…
