Effects of a Persuasive Communication on Beliefs, Attitudes, and Career Choice.
Strader, Marlene K.; Katz, Barry M.
Journal of Social Psychology, v130 n2 p141-50 Apr 1990
Uses Martin Fishbein's Theory of Reasoned Action to formulate a persuasive communication to influence unclassified U.S. college students to consider a career as a registered nurse. Finds the experimental group shows a significant positive change in beliefs, attitudes, and intentions, unlike the control group exposed to a neutral message only. (NL)
