Adolescents' Responses to Anti-Smoking Public Service Announcements (PSAs)

Category: Prevention

Sponsor: National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA)

PI: William Shadel

Start Date: October 2005

End Date: June 2008

The goal of this project is to evaluate, in two laboratory-based studies, how individual differences in how adolescents' experiences with smoking (never smoker, experimenter, regular smoker) interact with features of anti-smoking Public Service Announcements (attractiveness of actors, strength of anti-smoking message) to predict their intentions and willingness to smoke in the future.
