Media’s embrace of technology
Immediate Affect, Enduring Cognition
Media attention plays a crucial role in shaping individual risk perceptions and health behaviors during health crises. However, extant research relying on cross-sectional data struggles to capture the temporal dynamics of media influence on preventive behaviors and the evolving mediating roles of affective and cognitive risk perceptions. To address this gap, this study proposed and empirically tested two alternative theoretical models: the affect…
Which Negative Emotions Drive Preventive Behaviors? Comparing Emotion Conceptualizations and Their Conditional Effects Across Health and Environmental Risk
5,531) to assess cross-risk generalizability. Results show that, in COVID-19, appraisal-based emotions outperform general negative emotions in predicting preventive behaviors, with loss-based emotions exhibiting stronger positive associations than ethics-based emotions. Moderation inferences are largely invariant across conceptualizations: cognitive risk perception does not moderate the emotion-preventive behavior associations, whereas macro-leve…
Determining or Mediating Media? Model Comparisons on the Role of Media and Risk in Shaping Preventive Behaviors During Crises
This study investigates the role of media in risk communication during crises by comparing two theoretical perspectives. The first paradigm views media as a determining factor, while the second sees media as a mediator. The study analyzes two survey data sets: cross-sectional data on nuclear waste issues from eight regions (Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, the United States, and the United Kingdom; N = 8,591) and …
Trust subdimensions as mediators between crisis response and satisfaction
Purpose This study aims to examine how crisis response content and form influence relational satisfaction, with trust – categorized as ability-based and benevolence-based – serving as a mediator. Design/methodology/approach Using demographically representative survey data from 3,515 respondents across Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, the authors used structural equation modeling to examine the mediating effects of trust and distinct roles of…
Understanding the conditional media effects
This study analyzed three-wave panel survey data gathered from August 2020 (n = 3,190) to April 2022 (n = 1,153) in Hong Kong to examine the effects of conditional media on preventive behaviors during the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease) pandemic. By using the differential susceptibility to media effects model (DSMM), this study demonstrates the usefulness of trust as an effective cultivator of media exposure, especially with regard to the contradi…
The Media-Mediated Model of Information Seeking Behavior
This study aims to unravel the key determinants of individuals’ information seeking behavior during health crises. It challenges conventional perspectives that solely emphasize individual experiences. It also undermines frameworks that draw direct parallels between individual experiences and media factors, disregarding the mediating role of media. Models like the Comprehensive Model of Information Seeking (CMIS) also have limitations as they prio…
A context‐sensitive collectivism during the Covid ‐19 pandemic
This study investigates individuals' adoption of containment measures (e.g., wearing masks) from the perspectives of cultural values and trust in two countries—China and the US. Distinguished from previous definitions that characterise cultural values as rigid and fixed concepts, this study reconceptualizes collectivism to be a context‐sensitive construct. With survey data from a collectivism‐prevalent culture (China, n = 1578) and an individuali…
Rallying around the vaccine
This article presents new arguments on the role of trust in the government and nationalist sentiments in fostering policy-compliant behaviors. In July and September 2020, we launched two waves of a COVID-related survey in China with stratified quota sampling, and formed a longitudinal panel dataset of 822 responses. Based on the data, we examined how risk perceptions and nationalist sentiments jointly elicited trust in government agencies and, co…
Self-Transcendence
The COVID-19 pandemic and the steps governments took to combat it tormented societies across the globe. Accordingly, existential positive psychologists have emphasized the importance of self-transcendence in mitigating the distress and agony caused by prolonged and rigorous health measures. In this cross-cultural study, the correlation between self-transcendence, people’s confidence in government, and democracy was examined. Based on the findings…
Sexual debut among college students in China
This study examines family context and sexual debut among young people in China. Using data from the 2018 Panel Study of Chinese University Students (PSCUS), it explores how the family is correlated with sexual debut among young people in China aged 18–24 years. The Kaplan–Meier method was adopted to detect a survival function for different family factors and related demographic variables. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was adopted t…
Country/Region Level Pandemic Severity Moderates the Relationships among Risk Experience, Perceived Life Satisfaction, and Psychological Distress in Covid-19
Scholars and communications practitioners worldwide have sought novel resilience models amid heightened rates of psychological distress caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. We examined perceived life satisfaction as a determinant of resilience. Additionally, we investigated the assumption that perceived pandemic severity at the country/region level moderates structural relationships within our risk-resilience model. Analyzing more than 34,000 valid s…
A Shot in the Arm for Vaccination Intention
This large-sample study of three Chinese societies-Mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong-demonstrates the importance of media exposure for people's vaccination intentions during the COVID-19 pandemic. By employing two constructs (i.e., perceived susceptibility and severity) in the health belief model (HBM), the study identifies significant indirect effects of media exposure on individuals' vaccination intention in all three Chinese societies. Tha…
