ABSTRACT

Cialdini’s six principles of influence are commercially used but less common to encourage healthy behaviors. This study examines how these influence strategies relate to the persuasive systems design (PSD) model constructs implemented in commercial mobile fitness applications. Our research questions address whether susceptibility to influence strategies strengthen the relationships between persuasive constructs and, if so, which strategies and software features are promising to leverage the persuasive effects of systems designed to change health behaviors. This study presents results from a survey of system users (N=147) and their self-reported susceptibility to the six principles. All PSD model constructs showed significantly unequal distribution for some influence strategy, indicating that susceptibility to these strategies affects how users evaluate systems. The commitment principle correlated positively with all persuasive constructs, while reciprocation, scarcity and liking all significantly affected system evaluations. Susceptibility to influence strategies also moderated the relationships between PSD model constructs, but the moderation was often negative with small effect sizes. Our preliminary results indicate that practitioners could benefit from utilizing these influence strategies, especially susceptibility to commitment and reciprocation, which are stable and often high. However, the interaction between these strategies and persuasive systems is not straightforward and would benefit from further research.

对社会影响策略和说服系统设计的敏感性:探索关系

摘要

Cialdini 的六项影响原则在商业上被使用,但在鼓励健康行为方面不太常见。本研究探讨了这些影响策略如何与商业移动健身应用程序中实施的说服系统设计 (PSD) 模型构造相关联。我们的研究问题解决了影响策略的敏感性是否会加强说服结构之间的关系,如果是,哪些策略和软件功能有望利用旨在改变健康行为的系统的说服效果。本研究展示了对系统用户 (N=147) 的调查结果及其对六项原则的自我报告敏感性。对于某些影响策略,所有 PSD 模型构造都显示出显着不均等的分布,表明对这些策略的敏感性会影响用户评估系统的方式。承诺原则与所有有说服力的结构呈正相关,而互惠、稀缺和喜欢都显着影响了系统评估。对影响策略的敏感性也调节了 PSD 模型结构之间的关系,但调节通常是负面的,效应量较小。我们的初步结果表明,从业者可以从利用这些影响力策略中受益,尤其是对承诺和回报的敏感性,它们是稳定的并且通常很高。然而,这些策略与说服系统之间的相互作用并不简单,将受益于进一步的研究。而互惠、稀缺和喜欢都显着影响了系统评估。对影响策略的敏感性也调节了 PSD 模型结构之间的关系,但调节通常是负面的,效应量较小。我们的初步结果表明,从业者可以从利用这些影响力策略中受益,尤其是对承诺和回报的敏感性,它们是稳定的并且通常很高。然而,这些策略与说服系统之间的相互作用并不简单,将受益于进一步的研究。而互惠、稀缺和喜欢都显着影响了系统评估。对影响策略的敏感性也调节了 PSD 模型结构之间的关系,但调节通常是负面的,效应量较小。我们的初步结果表明,从业者可以从利用这些影响力策略中受益,尤其是对承诺和回报的敏感性,它们是稳定的并且通常很高。然而,这些策略与说服系统之间的相互作用并不简单,将受益于进一步的研究。我们的初步结果表明,从业者可以从利用这些影响力策略中受益,尤其是对承诺和回报的敏感性,它们是稳定的并且通常很高。然而,这些策略与说服系统之间的相互作用并不简单,将受益于进一步的研究。我们的初步结果表明,从业者可以从利用这些影响力策略中受益,尤其是对承诺和回报的敏感性,它们是稳定的并且通常很高。然而,这些策略与说服系统之间的相互作用并不简单,将受益于进一步的研究。
