Next meeting Nov 13: Discussion of journal articles

Please join us at our next meeting on Nov 13, 12:30-1:30pm, in Derby 3116. We're going to try something different at this meeting -- instead of having a presentation, we'll be discussing a couple of articles that address potential mechanisms behind persuasive message effects. Both articles have implications for health and other persuasive comm research.

Both of the articles are available in full text on Ken DeMarree's Web site: http://www.psy.ohio-state.edu/gap/demarree/

Wheeler, S. C., DeMarree, K. G., & Petty, R. E. (2007). Understanding the role of the self in prime-to-behavior effects: The Active-Self account. Personality and Social Psychology Review, 11, 234-261.

Petty, R. E., BriƱol, P., & DeMarree, K. G. (in press). The Meta-Cognitive Model (MCM) of attitudes: Implications for attitude measurement, change, and strength. Social Cognition.

Hope to see you there!
