Thesis (M.A.)--Stephen F. Austin State University, 2008.

Attitudes toward hurricane evacuees were examined in two studies. Study 1 randomly exposed participants to one of eight combinations of media statistical context (appropriate, inappropriate), reimbursement (yes, no), and locus of causality (internal, external) presented in a video vignette format. Participants then rated sympathy, anger, and willingness to help responses on 7-point Likert-type scales. Results showed that participants were more willing to help hurricane evacuees when the university was awarded financial reimbursement from FEMA. Also, a two-way interaction of locus of causality and media statistical context resulted in differential ratings of sympathy, anger, and willingness to help. In Study 2, participants responded to a modified version of the Attitudes Toward Homelessness Inventory (ATHI), in which the word homeless was replaced by the term hurricane evacuee. Results showed that participants who endorsed more personal causation had less sympathy for, were more angry toward, and were less willing to help hurricane evacuees. On the other hand, participants who endorsed societal causation had more sympathy for and were less angry toward hurricane evacuees.
