James F. Evans Collection, Mimeographed, 1992. 19 p. Paper presented at 1992 Convention of the Mass Communication and Society Division, Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication; Montreal, Canada, The present experimental study examined television environmental commercials' agenda-setting effects. It was hypothesized that environmental commercials will have agenda-setting effects on the audience. However, the obtrusiveness and concreteness of the issue under study will influence the strength of the effects. Three television commercials with different levels of obtrusiveness and concreteness were selected and edited into regular television programs' commercial breaks. One experimental and two control groups were used and comparisons about their perceived importance of these environmental issues mentioned in these commercials were made among these three groups. The results did support the hypothesis; the proposed model suggests that the interactions between the obtrusiveness and concreteness of the issuer under study does influence the strength of the commercials' agenda-setting effects. The strongest agenda-setting effects are found when the issue is unobtrusive and concrete. When the issue is strong on either obtrusiveness or abstractness, no agenda-setting effects will be produced. However, when an obtrusive issue is under study, the abstractness of the issue will increase its agenda-setting effects and vice versa. The explanation seems to be that the abstractness of an obtrusiveness issue will disguise the nature (obtrusiveness) of this issue, so the audience's agenda will be affected more easily than an obtrusive and concrete issue.

James F. Evans Collection, Consumer concerns over pesticide residues and food additives have been growing in industrialized societies, including the United States and Japan. However, little comparative research has been carried out to determine which household characteristics may be significantly associated with these heightened concerns, and whether or not the same factors are useful for understanding variation in these worries in more than one society. This paper examines food safety attitudes in Seattle, Washington, and Kobe, Japan, and discovers that while the absolute level of expressed concern is higher in Kobe, the predictive power of household characteristics in explaining attitudinal differences within countries is similar. Implications for rural areas and future research on family structures in capitalists societies are discussed. (original)

15 pages., Via online journal., Preliminary results of a survey investigating individual well-being of residents in the
Great Barrier Reef region of Australia are presented. The well-being factors were
grouped into domains of: society, representing family and community issues; ecology, representing natural environment; and economy, dealing with economic issues
and provision of services. The relative perceived importance of factors was quantified, allowing for a creation of individual well-being functions. In the society domain,
family relations and health were identified as the most important contributors to
well-being. Water quality was the ecology domain factor that received highest
scores, and health services and income were the most important contributors to
the economic domain. The methodological approach used in this study has a potential to integrate ecological, social, and economic values of local people into
decision-making processes. The profiles of well-being thus generated would present
policymakers with information beyond that available from standard data sources.

"Biotechnology is believed to be useful to humanity, yet Spaniards are not in favor of its application to food production." Authors argue that this situation is caused primarily by the lack of debate in Spanish society concerning the social, legal, ethical and economic implications of biotechnology and genetic engineering.
