摘要
恐惧呼吁的目的是激发人们采取有意的和实际的行动来避免危险。虽然先前的荟萃分析报告说,恐惧诉求的平均效果是中等积极的,但功效信息的作用并没有完全被理解。先前的研究和恐惧诉求理论认为,反应和自我效能信息的存在都能提高恐惧诉求的成功率,但两者的个体影响尚未得到适当的估计。通过meta分析(k = 158, N = 19,736)检验了恐惧诉求中包含的反应和自我效能感信息对行为意图和行为的个体和综合影响。通过对恐惧诉求相对于低恐惧控制和无恐惧控制的影响进行估计,meta分析显示,当恐惧诉求包含积极反应效能信息时,对行为结果的影响更大,但当包含自我效能信息或消极反应效能信息时,对行为结果的影响不存在变化。
Self- and Response Efficacy Information in Fear Appeals: A Meta-Analysis
Fear appeals are designed to inspire intended and actual actions to avert a danger. Although prior meta-analyses report that the average effect of fear appeals is moderately positive, the role of efficacy information is not completely understood. Prior work and fear appeal theories have argued that the presence of both response and self-efficacy information improves fear appeal success but the individual impacts of each have not been properly estimated. A meta-analysis (k = 158, N = 19,736) was conducted to examine the individual and combined effects of response and self-efficacy information contained in fear appeals on behavioral intentions and behaviors. Estimating the impact of fear appeals relative to low and no fear controls, the meta-analysis showed that fear appeals had a stronger influence on behavioral outcomes when they included positive response efficacy information but did not vary as a function of including self-efficacy information or negative response efficacy information.
