Regulatory focus theory (Higgins 2014) could facilitate adoption patterns of such tools by positioning adoption as matching/mismatching individual motivational concern: promotion/prevention focus. This research proposes that people perceive products as inherently promotion or prevention oriented, and matching person orientation to product orientation enhances tool uptake. The paper outlines the development of a scale measuring promotion/prevention characteristics of objects, providing evidence for dimensionality, convergent, discriminant, and predictive validity. The resulting PM-PV scale allows promotion/prevention categorization for personal healthcare tools with potential for wider generalization. date: 2015 date_type: published publisher: ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS, TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD official_url: https://doi.org/10.1080/10696679.2015.980174 oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1962462 doi: 10.1080/10696679.2015.980174 lyricists_name: Nieroda, Marzena lyricists_id: MENIE18 actors_name: Nieroda, Marzena actors_id: MENIE18 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Journal of Marketing Theory and Practice volume: 23 number: 1 pagerange: 57-74 pages: 18 issn: 1069-6679 citation: Nieroda, Marzena; Keeling, Kathleen; Keeling, Debbie; (2015) Healthcare Self-Management Tools: Promotion or Prevention Regulatory Focus?
