In the past decade, growing public concern about novel technologies with uncertain potential long-term impacts on the environment and human health has moved risk policies toward a more precautionary approach. Focusing on mobile telephony, the effects of precautionary information on risk perception were analyzed. A pooled multinational experimental study based on a 5 × 2 × 2 factorial design was conducted in nine countries. The first factor refers to whether or not information on different types of precautionary measures was present, the second factor to the framing of the precautionary information, and the third factor to the order in which cell phones and base stations were rated by the study participants. The data analysis on the country level indicates different effects. The main hypothesis that informing about precautionary measures results in increased risk perceptions found only partial support in the data. The effects are weaker, both in terms of the effect size and the frequency of significant effects, across the various precautionary information formats used in the experiment. Nevertheless, our findings do not support the assumption that informing people about implemented precautionary measures will decrease public concerns.
Die Säure‐Derivate (III)er Barbiturate (I) werden durch Umsetzung der mit P‐trichlorid aus ihren Säuren gebildeten Säurechloride (II) synthetisiert und säulenchromatographisch isoliert.
Das Benzodiazepinon (I) läßt sich mit m‐Chlorperbenzoesäure (II) zum N‐Oxid (III) oxidieren, das sich mit Acetanhydrid zur Acetoxyverbindung (IV) umlagert.
Im Hinblick auf Steroidsynthesen in der Pregnanreihe wurde die Cyclisierbarkeit der ‐ ausgehend von den Hagemann‐Estern (Ia) bzw. (Ib) über die Stufen (IIIa) (nachfolgende Verseifung und Decarboxylierung ‐ (IIIb)) bzw. (Va) (‐ (Vb)) zugänglichen ‐ Allylalkohole (VIa), (VIb) sowie (X) untersucht.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations –citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
