The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of forewarning types and delay times on resistance to persuasion. Subjects were forewarned either 6min before or just before being exposed to persuasion. The results showed that different resistance effects were caused by the interaction of types of forewarning and delay times. Forewarning of persuasive intent aroused psychological reactance immediately, but forewarning of topic and position caused both psychological reactance and counterarguments in a delay condition, and both types of forewarning caused resistance to persuasion. The results were discussed in terms of the theory of psychological reactance and the counterargument model.
