N = 300 (Cohorts 1–3 combined). Spearman correlations between all predictor variables and each of the four behavioral intention items, plus their mean composite. Sorted by |r| with composite. p-values are exploratory only.


Outcome measures

Spearman correlations among the four behavioral intention outcomes (N = 300). Scale: 1 = Definitely will not, 7 = Definitely will. The Oppose ↔︎ Support pairing is the strongest (r = 0.81), consistent with both being representative-contact behaviors. Talk to others is the most distinct from the other three.
