Accuracy and Defense Motives
This study reconceptualizes information insufficiency as a goal-contingent construct within the Risk Information Seeking and Processing model. In multifaceted risk contexts, individuals confront health threats alongside challenges to deep-seated values and beliefs, producing different judgmental demands within a single risk event. Survey data from 858 Hong Kong adults show two distinct forms of information insufficiency, one oriented toward accur…
Understanding the Moderating Effects of Relevant Channel Beliefs and Information Gathering Capacity in the Risk Information Seeking and Processing Model
The risk information seeking and processing (RISP) model posits that relevant channel beliefs (RCB) and perceived information gathering capacity (PIGC) moderate individuals’ risk information seeking and processing. However, this area has been underexplored, with past studies indicating that RCB is an inconsistent predictor. To address this, we used an expectancy-value approach (Griffin et al. 2013) to conceptualize and operationalize RCB, and we …
What Might Happen With Generative AI?” Examining the Role of Prefactual Thinking in the Cognitive Mediation Model in the Context of Emerging Technologies
Prefactual thinking, a form of prospective mental simulation, significantly impacts individuals’ decision-making. To understand the influence of media consumption on public opinion regarding emerging technologies, this study, in the context of generative artificial intelligence (AI), examined prefactual thinking as a cognitive process of media consumption, extending the cognitive mediation model. Using quota sampling, we conducted an online surve…
Generational differences in health information behaviors during the Covid-19 crisis
The literature has explored age differences in health information seeking during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, there is a noticeable gap in research regarding generational variations in the underlying factors of health information scanning and sharing, as well as generational differences in the interplay of health information seeking, scanning, and sharing. This study examined: (1) differences in risk- and channel-related motivators of online h…
Examining the Link Between Information Processing and Preventive Behavior in the Risk Information-Seeking and Processing (Risp) Model
The Risk Information-Seeking and Processing (RISP) model postulates that individuals who process risk information systematically are likely to hold stronger attitudes toward preventive behavior than those who process information heuristically. Therefore, individuals’ attitudes toward risk preventive behavior developed or changed through systematic processing are likely to be more persistent over time than those whose attitudes are based on heuris…
Social and cultural construction processes involved in HPV vaccine hesitancy among Chinese women
HPV vaccination is promoted in a manner that is "feminized" and "moralized" under the patriarchal value system, further imposing the burden of disease on women, and leading to health inequality of women in pursuing the vaccination as a preventive health behaviour as a result. We believe that this ultimately results in an incomplete understanding of HPV, consequently influencing the decision-making process. The "mixed-economy" medical system adopt…
