Political and institutional influences on the use of evidence in public health policy. A systematic review. by Marco Liverani, Benjamin Hawkins, Justin O Parkhurst

“…Relevant political and institutional aspects affecting the use of health evidence included the level of state centralisation and democratisation, the influence of external donors and organisations, the organisation and function of bureaucracies, and the framing of evidence in relation to social norms and values. However, our understanding of such influences remains piecemeal given the limited number of empirical analyses on this subject, the paucity of comparative works, and the limited consideration of political and institutional theory in these studies.…”

Combining biometrics and self-reports to better understand perceptions of source trustworthiness, expertise, and believability in HPV blog messaging by Laura Crosswell

“…Our new media environment and redefined concepts of expert credentials have consequently complicated the nature of “credibility” and trust in public health messaging.Aims This study aims to address gaps in both the literature and data collection techniques that inform the current body of HPV-related health communication scholarship. Specifically, the following work combines different measures of message processing (comparing implicit gaze behaviors with explicit self-reports) to examine the effect of source credentials on audience perception of source trustworthiness/expertise, content credibility, and message believability regarding HPV health information.Methods I examine the psychophysiological impact of source credentials on audience reception of HPV-related blog posts. …”

Empirical exploration of the 4P theory of creativity using virtual reality by Chiara Lucifora, Claudia Scorolli, Aldo Gangemi

“…Our findings suggest an intricate network of components, with significant correlations for 5 out of 6 relations. Our findings are in line with previous research about the relation between Person and Process, between Person and Press, and between Process and Product, and show novel insights about the relation between Person and Product and between Press and Process.We have applied our novel method to the original 4P foundational domains, demonstrating its utility to lay a research ground to formally (via ontological distinctions) and empirically (based on explicit and implicit measures) compare creativity theories that extend 4P components, possibly addressing cognitive abilities, expertise and impact levels, error functionalization, creativity dynamics, etc.…”
