Parents from MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) were recruited to take part in a study, along with parents who were not members of the organization

Psychology

Parents from MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) were recruited to take part in a study, along with parents who were not members of the organization. The parents were equally assigned to one of four groups. They read a message about elevating the nonaccompanied driving age from 16 to 18 from either an expert or nonexpert source who supported his position with either strong or weak arguments. Participants then rated how likely they would be to vote for a law mandating the elevated driving age on a Likert scale. Parents from MADD were more likely to vote for the law. Strong arguments were more persuasive than weak arguments. Parents were persuaded by strong arguments when the source was not an expert, but they were equally persuaded by strong and weak arguments when the source was an expert.
