• What, Me Worry? The Role of Affect in Information Seeking and Avoidance (2013, background): “This research suggests that the mass media are the most frequent source for information about science topics (Miller, Augenbraun, Schulhof, & Kimmel, 2006) and that the more sources one relies on, the better his or her climate change knowledge is (Kahlor & Rosenthal, 2009).”
• Linking Risk Messages to Information Seeking and Processing (2013, methodology): “Kahlor (2007) and Kahlor and Rosenthal (2009) expanded the perceived behavioral control application to include measures of the extent to which the individual has volitional control over seeking the risk information.”
