Does Character Similarity Increase Identification and Persuasion? (2018, methodology): “Finally, in their Extended Elaboration Likelihood model, Slater and Rouner (2002) also predicted that homophily would increase identification and, consequently, attitude change.”
Psychological Reactance and Persuasive Health Communication: A Review of the Literature (2019, background): “Research has shown that narratives are a particularly effective format for delivering persuasive health messages (Slater and Rouner, 2002; Moyer-Gusé, 2008; Bilandzic and Busselle, 2013).”
10 The Effects of Engagement with Entertainment (2013, background): “Social cognitive theory (SCT; Bandura, 2001) and theories of narrative persuasion (Moyer-Gusé, 2008; Slater & Rouner, 2002) together suggest that viewers’ involvement with narratives and characters plays a key role in motivating these outcomes.”
Explaining the Effects of Narrative in an Entertainment Television Program: Overcoming Resistance to Persuasion (2010, background): “But narrative messages may be able to reduce counterarguing compared to other persuasive strategies by fostering transportation into the narrative (Green & Brock, 2000; Slater & Rouner, 2002).”
Interventions to reduce prejudice and enhance inclusion and respect for ethnic differences in early childhood: A systematic review (2012, neutral): “These two latter interventions are more recent than contact and so require ﬁne-tuning and a focus on theory such as education–entertainment (Slater & Rouner, 2002) and media-mediated indirect contact (Mutz & Goldman, 2010).”
The role of dimensions of narrative engagement in narrative persuasion (2009, methodology): “Attentional focus on the story may therefore lead to a reduction of negative cognitive responses, which, in turn, results in higher acceptance of story consistent beliefs and attitudes (Green and Brock, 2000; Slater and Rouner, 2002).”
Experimental Manipulation of Psychological Involvement with Media (2014, background): “Anticipating a persuasive attempt, many individuals can guard themselves from influence by distancing themselves from the commercial message and scrutinizing it more critically than an entertainment message (Slater & Rouner, 2002).”
