A Communication–Human Information Processing (C–HIP) approach to warning effectiveness in the workplace
@article{Conzola2001ACI, title={A Communication–Human Information Processing (C–HIP) approach to warning effectiveness in the workplace}, author={V. C. Conzola and Michael S. Wogalter}, journal={Journal of Risk Research}, year={2001}, volume={4}, pages={309 - 322} }
Warnings are one of several hazard control methods used to protect employees and property against danger and loss. This article surveys a set of factors known to influence the effectiveness of workplace warnings. The description of empirical research is organized around a communication–human information processing (C–HIP) model. The model begins with a source entity attempting to relay a warning message through one or more media/sensory channels to one or more receivers. At the receiver…
