For a pretest we extracted arguments from 21 audiovisual PSA and 19 print PSA, resulting in 36<br />
arguments (18 factual / 18 emotional). We pretested the arguments in regard <strong>of</strong> loading and<br />
affectiveness (n=49); age M=25 (SD = 7,286); gender-balanced. The study is a 2x2 experimental<br />
design varying form <strong>of</strong> presentation (rhetorical / testimonial) and type <strong>of</strong> argument (factual /<br />
emotional). The manipulated treatment is a ca. 350 words text, integrating the top 5 factual and top<br />
5 emotional arguments (pretest) presented in rhetorical and testimonial condition. We used a<br />
random cluster-sample (initial sample n= 605; response rate (completed) n=383); age = Md 26 (M =<br />
28,9; SD = 10,447), 72,2 % female participants.<br />
We tested Message Judgement (11 items, α = ,725 (Burke & Edell, 1989), Perceived Effectiveness (8<br />
items, α = ,889) (Dillard & Ye, 2008)), Transportation (9 items, α = ,698) (Green & Brock, 2000)<br />
and Reactance (4 items, α = ,877) (Dillard & Shen, 2005) (see also Busselle & Bilandzic, 2009;<br />
Bilandzic, Hastall, Kinnebrock, & Busselle, 2010; Keer, van den Putte, & Neijens, 2012).<br />
We replicated the hypothesis-set (Keer, van den Putte, de Wit, & Neijens, in press), which has been<br />
used in order to test argumentation in regard <strong>of</strong> binge-drinking:<br />
H1 (Message Judgement): Probands who read the testimonial-based text, evaluate the text‘s<br />
messages more positive than probands who read the rhetorical-based text.<br />
H2 (Perceived Effectiveness): Probands who read the testimonial-based text, perceive the text‘s<br />
effectiveness higher than probands who read the rhetorical-based text.<br />
H3 (Message Judgement): Probands who read the emotional text, evaluate the text‘s messages more<br />
positive than probands who read the factual text.<br />
H4 (Perceived Effectiveness): Probands who read the emotional text, perceive the text‘s<br />
effectiveness higher than probands who read the factual text.<br />
H5 (Message Judgement): Texts that feature congruency <strong>of</strong> presentational characteristics and type <strong>of</strong><br />
argument are evaluated more positive than mismatching texts. (Congruency = rhetorical+factual vs.<br />
testimonial-based+emotional)<br />
H6 (Perceived Effectiveness). Texts that feature congruency <strong>of</strong> presentational characteristics and<br />
type <strong>of</strong> argument are perceived more effective than mismatching texts.<br />
H7 (Transportation): Congruency <strong>of</strong> presentational characteristics and type <strong>of</strong> argument cause higher<br />
transportation measures than mismatching texts.<br />
H8 (Reactance): Congruency <strong>of</strong> presentational characteristics and type <strong>of</strong> argument cause lower<br />
reactance measures than mismatching texts.<br />
Results show a dissonant picture <strong>of</strong> campaign-features’ effectiveness in comparison to the original<br />
study. While the original research showed significant interaction-effects, such interactions are<br />
entirely missing in regard <strong>of</strong> IPV-messages. Diametrically opposite, main effects indicate<br />
dysfunctional text-features.<br />
Exemplarily, as transportation <strong>of</strong> messages is regularly supposed to be more effective within<br />
emotional and testimonial-based texts, main effects <strong>of</strong> emotional as well as testimonial-based<br />
