Construal level as a moderator of the role of affective and cognitive attitudes in the prediction of health-risk behavioural intentions

In two preliminary control checks it was shown that affective attitudes presented greater abstraction than cognitive attitudes. Three further studies explored how construal level moderated the role of affective and cognitive attitudes in predicting one health-promoting behaviour (exercising) and two...
