Field of Current Research

Title of Research Area Brief Description
Message processing, road safety ads Extending my PhD, this research investigates how young adults who differ in risk propensity elaborate and process road safety advertisements (drink driving, speeding, drug driving)
Motivated reasoning and risky behaviour This research investigates the cultural and symbolic meaning young adults attribute to risky road behaviour and road safety advertising
Harm Chain analysis Collaborating with Dr Previte, this project extends the concept of a social marketing Harm Chain from a linear production orientation process to one that considers the co-creation of value, both positive and negative, by stakeholders when developing long-term behaviour change strategies
Social Marketing My key area of research examines advertising effectiveness and message processing across social marketing issues, particularly road safety.
