Funded Activity Summary

Emotional and political reactions to representations of terrorism. This project offers the first systematic account of Australians' responses to representations of terrorism, including terrorists' persuasion messages and images of terrorism. It will advance the priority goal of understanding how Australians engage with the global environment. The project also identifies the psychological processes underlying responses to terrorist persuasion and terrorism images. Results will contribute to the development of effective counter-terrorism education strategies, which will enhance our ability to anticipate and tackle critical threats to Australian society. The findings will also help editors and media directors develop strategies to ensure balanced coverage of terrorism.
