摘要

为了测试风险信息搜索和处理模型在不同程度的个人相关性下是否一致地执行风险，本研究侧重于全氟烷基物质和多氟烷基物质(PFAS)污染的背景。一项实验调查(N = 1,323)的结果表明，当PFAS污染被描述为与参与者的相关性较低时，信息主观规范发挥了更大的作用。此外，政府信任和科学信任仅在低相关条件下与信息寻求相关。最后，担忧和焦虑的不同结果表明，需要更好地理解离散情绪对信息寻求的影响。

For My Own Sake: The Role of Personal Relevance in Information Seeking

To test whether the risk information seeking and processing model performs consistently when a risk is viewed at different levels of personal relevance, this study focuses on the context of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination. Results from an experimental survey ( N = 1,323) indicate that informational subjective norms play a bigger role when PFAS contamination is portrayed as having lower relevance to participants. Moreover, trust in government and trust in science are associated with information seeking only in the low relevance condition. Finally, the different results of worry and anxiety suggest a need to better understand discrete emotions’ impact on information seeking.
