You Must Eat Less Meat! Effects of Issue Importance on Reactance to Meat-Reduction Messages
Meat reduction has a strong potential to reduce individual greenhouse gas emissions, so a better understanding of how the public responds to meat-reduction messages is needed. The present study investigated whether emphasizing the importance of climate change would mitigate the negative effects of forceful meat-reduction messages on intentions and policy support through reactance. A total of 502 U.S. residents viewed a forceful or a nonforceful m…
Mechanisms of Pro-Environmental Behavioural Spillover
If one pro-environmental behaviour (PEB) influences subsequent behaviours, this spillover effect holds significant implications for environmental policies. This paper systematically examines the psychological mechanisms underpinning PEB spillover by testing a comprehensive set of mediators within the same empirical framework. Studies were conducted in Norway ( N = 1,574) and Germany ( N = 1,938), using correlational and experimental designs. The …
Red meat, reactance and political party
Reduction of red meat consumption is urgently needed, but there is concern that meat‐reduction appeals may lead to reactance. Across three studies (total N = 2978), two of which were preregistered, participants were shown a meat‐reduction appeal that was paired with an image that linked meat to its animal origins, a meat‐only image or no image to test whether different message characteristics affected how messages were processed. Results show tha…
