内容简介:

Biodiversity loss is ranked as one of the top threats to sustainable development. However, efforts to raise money to preserve different species are not always successful; normatively unattractive animals receive fewer donations and support because their physical appearance elicits an avoidance response. To mitigate this problem, we suggest that visual and verbal information can be used strategically to elicit different information processing styles. Specifically, unattractiveness conveyed through verbal information is likely to pique curiosity, increase learning intention and donations whereas unattractiveness conveyed visually elicits the expected negative affective reactions and hurts donations. Importantly, we show that altering the relative dominance of modalities (e.g., presentation order, relative size), while keeping the information constant, is sufficient to change the processing styles and elicit these effects. Nine studies provided supportive evidence for our propositions. Theoretical contributions and practical implications are discussed.
