Elaboration And The Logical And Affective Responses To Flood Risk Messages: Elaboration Likelihood Model And Information Processing Perspectives, Ayanna Eastman

Faculty Works

The loss of property and life following tragic events, such as flooding in the United States, demonstrate the frequent ineffectiveness of official risk communication strategies. Few studies have focused on the cognitive processes that impact individuals’ decisions upon receiving risk messages prior to flooding events. This study focuses specifically on the content of public service announcements (PSAs), elaboration and the logical and affective responses elicited by flooding and assesses individualized responses to varying message formats. It does so through the frameworks of the Information Processing Theory (IPT) and Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM) by examining the impact of flood risk messages …

Rural Futures Institute: Publications

Most metropolitan Nebraskans trust local health professionals for …

Journalism Graduates’ Perceptions And Experiences Of Internships And Employment, Breanne L. Ahearn

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Graduates who do not have an internship show greater difficulty in obtaining gainful employment compared to those who do have an internship. However, simply believing that internships may translate into employment does not explain how students perceive the role of the internship in obtaining employment in the field. The purpose of the study was to investigate the graduates’ perceptions and experiences of how internships might affect journalism majors’ gaining employment in the field within 6 months of graduation. Kolb’s four stages of experiential learning theory was used as the conceptual framework to investigate how journalism-related major graduates described their journalism …
