摘要

摘要

En 中文
Psychological reactance is one of the underlying mechanisms of message effects on persuasion outcomes. We conducted meta-analyses across 28 articles, comprising 33 studies and 146 effect sizes (2005-2024), to examine (a) message effects on psychological reactance and (b) the influence of psychological reactance on persuasion outcomes. Results showed that high freedom-threatening language increased anger (k = 28, r = .21), negative cognitions (k = 25, r = .17), and psychological reactance (k = 53, r = .20) compared to low freedom-threatening language. These effects were moderated by behavior repetitiveness and communication modality. However, gain vs. loss framing showed no significant differences in anger (k = 6, r = -.03), negative cognitions (k = 6, r = -.01), or psychological reactance (k = 12, r = -.02). Both anger (r = -.23, k = 42) and negative cognitions (r = -.18, k = 39) were negatively associated with persuasion outcomes.
