Persuasive Communication and Drug Abuse Prevention
The history of drug abuse prevention campaigns suggests limitations in producing measurable changes in behavior. In the past, there was concern over the possibility of such publicity actually encouraging interest in drug use, rather than discouraging such behavior. Although little or no scientifically sound empirical evidence has been found to support such a view, several social science textbooks still refer to this as something of which to be wa…
Effects of a School‐Based, Theory‐Driven HIV and Pregnancy Prevention Curriculum
More work is necessary to understand the best ways to design classroom messages that will be effective in reducing the risk behaviors of high sensation seekers and impulsive decision makers
Effects of the Office of National Drug Control Policy’s Marijuana Initiative Campaign on High-Sensation-Seeking Adolescents
Objectives. We evaluated the effects of the Marijuana Initiative portion of the Office of National Drug Control Policy’s National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign on high-sensation-seeking and low-sensation-seeking adolescents. Methods. Personal interviews were conducted via laptop computers with independent monthly random samples of 100 youths from the same age cohort in each of 2 moderate-sized communities over 48 months (April 1999–March 2003) o…

Sensation seeking, impulsive decision-making, and risky sex
Applications of a Theoretic Model of Information Exposure to Health Interventions
This paper describes an individual-differences model of information exposure which reflects the needs for novelty and sensation likely inherited as survival behaviors from humankind's ancient past. The model grew out of an earlier activation model developed to explain exposure to information about public affairs. After the model's biological basis is explained, it is proposed as a theory in deductive nomological form. Propositions are then deduce…
Attention, Need for Sensation, and Health Communication Campaigns
Although attention to novelty is no longer as vital to survival as in our ancient past, the attention value of novelty has major implications for contemporary human communication. It also is affected by individual differences in reactivity to intense and novel stimulation. The studies reported in this article involve the roles of attention and sensation seeking in responses to drug abuse prevention campaigns in the mass media. Early studies have …
The case for empiricism
Perceived difficulties inherent in logical empiricism cited by "action theorists" ignore interpretations and modifications of empirical reasoning. Although it is highly unlikely that invariant laws of a universal nature will ever be discovered about any kind of phenomenon, critics of conventional science often cite this as an example of the deficiencies of empiricism without being aware of more recent interpretations or modifications of empirical…

An activation model of information exposure
This paper outlines and tests a two‐stage activation model of information exposure. A fundamental postulate is that human beings have individual levels of need for activation or arousal. If activation falls below or exceeds this level, individuals will tend to experience a negative affective state and will turn away from a given source of information. If activation remains within some acceptable range, the affective state will be more pleasant an…

Communication and Life Styles in Appalachia
Studies of communication and change in underdeveloped countries were drawn upon to design a study of what kinds of persons adopted—or refused to adopt—what kinds of practices in the “War on Poverty” in an Appalachian county. The study approaches the individual as an interactive behavioral system whose components are variables defining his “style of life.” Data were gathered on 41 aspects of life style of heads of households and homemakers in two …
Newspaper Gatekeepers and Forces in the News Channel
What factors are related to the decisions by newspaper gatekeepers to run certain pieces of information and not others, or to feature certain items and "bury" others? This study involves an integrated approach to this news decision-making process, including analysis of content, administration of a questionnaire, and gathering of demographic data. The study coven three kinds of "forced" and their relationships to news decisions
