Next meeting May 13

HCRG (soon to be CHASSIS) will meet Tuesday, May 13, 12:30-1:30pm, Derby 3116.

Second-year PhD student Cat Goodall will do a quick walk-through of a study she'll be presenting at ICA on alcohol ads and implicit attitudes. In the second half of the meeting, Dr. Joyce Wang will discuss a study that examines the dynamic effects of motivational variables on four psychophysiological measures of emotion and cognition, as well as a behavioral measure of channel choice. The study tests the central role of motivational activation in mediated information processing.

Both of these talks are a great segue as we transition to CHASSIS, which has a broader focus that includes attitude structures involved in health and other communication effects. Please join us!
