Influence of Presumed Media Influence for Health Prevention: How Mass Media Indirectly Promote Health Prevention Behaviors through Descriptive Norms

ABSTRACT According to the influence of presumed influence (IPI) hypothesis, people’s presumption of media effects tend to impact their willingness to engage in unhealthy behaviors (e.g., smoking) by shaping the normative perception of such behaviors. By applying the IPI hypothesis to media content for health promotion, this study explores how presumed media influence promotes health prevention behaviors in college students. Moreover, this study adopts three health behaviors to test the IPI processing mechanisms across different types of prevention behaviors (i.e., ambiguity and privacy). The results show that one’s perceived influence of health promotion media content on others promotes one’s own intentions to engage in healthy behaviors of safe sex, diet and nutrition, and skin cancer prevention. The findings also indicate that descriptive norms play various roles depending on the types of behavior. We discuss the IPI hypothesis as a persuasive strategy for health campaigns using mass media.

Which literacy for health promotion: health, food, nutrition or media?

Education and literacy are important aspects of health promotion. The potential for health literacy to promote healthier choices has been widely examined, with studies variously incorporating food literacy, nutrition literacy and/or media literacy as components of health literacy, rather than treating each as unique concepts for health promotion. This study examines similarities and differences across health literacy, food literacy, nutrition literacy and health-promoting media literacy to highlight how each literacy type theorizes the relationship between education and health. A meta-review of existing scoping and systematic reviews examining literacy conceptualizations was conducted to examine the four literacies. Representative concept definitions were extracted and key competencies (or skills) and desired consequences were identified and grouped into subcategories for analysis. This study located 378 articles, of which 17 scoping/systematic reviews were included (10 for health literacy, 3 for food, 1 for nutrition and 3 for media). Representative concept definitions of the four literacy types revealed three skill categories (information acquisition, information analysis, and the application of information) and three categories of desired consequences (knowledge, attitudes and behaviors), with each of the four literacy types emphasizing varied collections of skills and desired consequences. Despite perceived similarities in content, health, food, nutrition and media literacy conceptualize the relationship between education and health differently, emphasizing the distinct types of knowledge to promote health-related outcomes. A better understanding of the differences between these four literacies will lead to informed decision making for researchers, educators and health practitioners in intervention design and implementation.

However, little published data exists on the factors that facilitate health information diffusion in South East Asia, especially Malaysia compared with Western countries. This study aimed to investigate factors associated with good engagement rates among internet users on the Facebook (FB) page of Ministry of Health Malaysia.
