本研究探讨了当与信息健康信息相结合时,可视化参与健康行为是否会导致参与该行为的意图增加。此外,用于可视化的健康行为的视觉视角(第一人称与第三人称)的影响进行了探讨。在一项采用2 × 3参与者实验设计的在线问卷调查中,参与者(N= 532)阅读与未阅读有关增加水果消费的益处的信息健康信息,然后可视化(从第一人称与第三人称角度)与未可视化自己增加水果消费。增加水果消费的意图进行了评估,作为潜在的中介变量。结果表明,可视化(无论角度)并没有导致增加的意图时,它不与健康信息相结合。然而,当参与者阅读健康信息时,可视化导致了更强烈的意图,第一人称视角比第三人称视角更有效。视觉化和第一人称视角对意图的有益影响是通过增加自我效能和行动计划来介导的。结果进行了讨论,在有关现有的研究可视化和角度来看,并在实际应用方面的健康促进工作。
The present research explored whether visualising engaging in a health behaviour resulted in increased intentions to engage in that behaviour, when combined with an informational health message. Further, the effects of the visual perspective (first-person vs. third-person) used to visualise the health behaviour were explored. In an online questionnaire study employing a 2 × 3 between-participants experimental design, participants (N= 532) read vs. did not read an informational health message about the benefits of increasing fruit consumption, then visualised (from first-person vs. third-person perspective) vs. did not visualise themselves increasing their fruit consumption. Intentions to increase fruit consumption were assessed, as were potential mediating variables. The results indicated that visualisation (irrespective of perspective) did not result in increased intentions when it was not combined with the health message. However, when participants had read the health message, visualisation resulted in significantly stronger intentions, and the first-person perspective was significantly more effective than the third-person perspective. The beneficial effect of visualisation, and the first-person perspective, on intentions was mediated by increased self-efficacy and action planning. Findings are discussed in relation to existing research on visualisation and perspective, and in terms of practical applications for health promotion efforts.
