TY - JOUR PY - 1994// TI - Evaluating risk communications: completing and correcting mental models of hazardous processes, Part II JO - Risk analysis A1 - Bostrom, A. A1 - Atman, C. J. A1 - Fischhoff, Baruch A1 - Morgan, M. G. SP - 789 EP - 798 VL - 14 IS - 5 N2 - We propose a decision-analytic framework, called the mental models approach, for evaluating the impact of risk communications. It employs multiple evaluation methods, including think-aloud protocol analysis, problem solving, and a true-false test that allows respondents to express uncertainty about their answers. The approach is illustrated in empirical comparisons of three brochures about indoor radon.
