The messages in the intervention group were assessed on acceptance (i.e., behavioral intention and message effectiveness), rejection, and the third person effect (TPE) differential score (i.e., the message is perceived to be more effective for others than for themselves). Results: Hierarchical regression analyses found that, compared to males, females reported: a) lower intention to monitor/read social interactive technology on a smartphone while driving, b) lower rejection; and, c) lower TPE likelihood, irrespective of message. Conclusions: These findings suggest that young male drivers and young female drivers require different message content to be effective and support the importance of including multiple outcome measures to explain the messages' persuasive effects.]]> Thu 16 Feb 2023 10:43:01 AEDT ]]> Key beliefs influencing young drivers’ engagement with social interactive technology on their smartphones: a qualitative study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36228 Mon 16 Mar 2020 15:29:12 AEDT ]]>
