The authors contend that sensation seeking should positively predict talk about science, even after controlling for often-cited predictors such as education, relevant employment, perceived understanding of science, perceived relevance of science, and attitude toward science. Data from a random digit dial telephone survey (N = 667) supported the authors' hypothesis. The authors note connections to the science communication and opinion leadership literatures and encourage future work in this vein. }, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/287dd04620d223474100852621a917606/seiser}, keywords = {public health campaign theory_lv_wisskomm} } @book{1402001312, title = {Science Communication in Theory and Practice (Science & Technology Education Library)}, edition = 1, publisher = {Springer}, year = 2001, url = {http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html%3FASIN=1402001312%26tag=ws%26lcode=xm2%26cID=2025%26ccmID=165953%26location=/o/ASIN/1402001312%253FSubscriptionId=13CT5CVB80YFWJEPWS02}, ean = {9781402001314}, asin = {1402001312}, isbn = {1402001312}, description = {Amazon.com: Science Communication in Theory and Practice (Science & Technology Education Library): S.M.
