Summary

Background:

Researchers are testing new methods for research projects. They want to see how people respond to different types of communication, including videos. They also want to learn how people respond to life events and how they pay attention to computer tasks. They want to learn about how various risks and threats affect the way people make decisions.

Objectives:

To learn how different stimuli and events affect the way people make decisions.

Eligibility:

Adults ages 18 and older with a U.S. computer address

Design:

Participants will be recruited online.

Participants will take one of three studies online. Each study will take about a half hour.

Participants in Study 1 will watch a short video from a popular movie then answer questions. They will also complete 2 questionnaires. One will be about how likely they think it is that they will experience different risks and threats. The other will be about goals for behavior change.

Participants in Study 2 will write in detail about a life event. Then they will answer questions. They will also complete the same 2 questionnaires as Study 1.

Participants in Study 3 will pay close attention to words and images on a computer. They will answer questions about attitudes toward different behaviors, products, and experiences.
