Trial by Fire
The September 2020 Oregon wildfires were unprecedented in terms of their geographic scope and the number of communities affected by smoke and wildfire. Although it is difficult to directly attribute the event to climate change, scientists have noted the strong connection between warmer and drier conditions in the western United States—conditions that are linked to climate change—and increasing wildfire risk. These wildfires thus had the potential…
Disaster preparedness and community helping behaviour in the wake of the 2020 Oregon wildfires
Extreme weather events are increasing in frequency and severity owing to climate change. Individual-level behavioural responses-notably, disaster preparedness and community helping actions (such as donating and volunteering)-supplement government efforts to respond to such phenomena, but rarely have they been explored together. Using data from a survey administered soon after the 2020 Oregon wildfires, this paper compares a range of socio-demogra…
Food Practice Lifestyles
Food systems, including production, acquisition, preparation, and consumption, feature importantly in environmental sustainability, energy consumption and climate change. With predicted increases in food and water shortages associated with climate change, food-related lifestyle and behavioral changes are advocated as important mitigation and adaptation measures. Yet, reducing emissions from food systems is predicted to be one of our greatest chal…
Poor Air Quality during Wildfires Related to Support for Public Safety Power Shutoffs
Millions of Americans experienced impacts from the 2020 wildfire season, including unhealthy air quality from smoke. We examine how exposure to poor air quality during wildfires relates to public opinion toward Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPSs). PSPSs have been increasingly deployed in the Western U.S. during extreme wildfire conditions to reduce ignition risk from power equipment by de-energizing sections of the electrical grid, potentially l…

Public preferences for five electricity grid decarbonization policies in California
The climate crisis and associated push for distributed, renewable electricity generation necessitate policy changes to decarbonize and modernize the electricity grid. Some of these changes-e.g., smart meter rollouts and tax credits for solar panel adoption-have received attention in the media and from social scientists to understand public perceptions and responses. Others-e.g., allowing peer-to-peer electricity sales, promoting residential elect…

Alcohol Point-of-Purchase Advertising and Promotions
Spending on non-traditional media such as point-of-purchase advertising and promotions continues to increase. Pro-alcohol messages are a concern since, alcohol advertising is positively associated with drinking and related problems. This is one of the first studies that assesses alcohol advertising and promotions at retail outlets. Within a census of alcohol outlets in 10 ethnically diverse urban California communities, alcohol advertising was fo…
Bidirectional Familial Influences in Dietary Behavior Test of a Model of Campaign Influences
Using both cross-sectional and longitudinal data spanning a decade, this article analyzes how dietary behavior of household children and adults (N = 576 households) was affected by the Stanford Five-City Project (FCP). Tests of a three-part, cumulative model of bidirectional influences within the family, which conceptualizes household members as sources of influence on each other and subject to influence by an external agent, were supported. Chil…
Health Campaign Channels Tradeoffs Among Reach, Specificity, and Impact
The authors examined comparative effects of five health campaign channels used in the Stanford Five-City Multifactor Risk Reduction Project. Three distinct criterion variables were evaluated: (a) reach, measured as the number of messages intervention community residents remembered; (b) specificity, assessed by examining whether the campaign differentially reached those who were already knowledgeable and practicing cardiovascular disease risk redu…
Exploring a Model of Symbolic Social Communication
We propose a model of symbolic social communication to explain the process whereby sociocultural identity mediates relationships among receivers, sources and messages to shape message effects. This exploratory study examines how two at-risk groups of African American men responded to various HIV prevention messages delivered by celebrity and professional sources. We interviewed 47 men from a homeless shelter and 50 male college students. Members …

Aids Knowledge
What is the relation between an individual's actual and perceived knowledge about AIDS and channels used for AIDS information? Data to address this question are derived from the AIDS knowledge and attitude surveys conducted by the Centers for Disease Control's National Center for Health Statistics (N = 17,696). The theoretical model used blends the conceptualization of involve- ment as a channel characteristic with information-processing research…
A community-based heart disease intervention
OBJECTIVES. This paper presents a prospective examination of sociodemographic, psychosocial, and physiologic characteristics associated with positive change in cardiovascular disease risk factors during a 6-year multiple risk factor intervention study. METHODS. Data are presented on 221 women and 190 men (aged 25 through 74 years) who participated in four cohort surveys (1979 through 1985). A signal detection model was used to identify baseline v…
