David Roskos-Ewoldsen
I conduct research on persuasion and social influence (attitude and norm accessibility), adolescent risk taking behaviors (mostly smoking), and media psychology (film comprehension, cooperative behavior in video games, cultural models & the media). I am past co-editor and co-founded of the journal Media Psychology and current editor and founded of the journal Communication Methods and Measures. Both journals are published by Taylor and Francis.
