8N The Incidental Effect of Hope and Pride on Compliance With Health-Care Warning Messages

• In Event: Working Paper Session & Reception
  In Working Paper Session: 8. Emotions

Short Abstract

This research shows that hope, a future-oriented emotion, increases risk perception and consequently, compliance with health-care warning messages, compared to pride, a past-oriented emotion (Studies 1 and 2). The opposite effect is observed when the temporal focus is not associated with specific emotions (Study 3).
