Abstract: (CIT): The success of public health campaigns depends in part on how the information central to the campaign is communicated and the psychological and social resistance to that information that exists in the targeted audience. The crafting of successful messages in public communication campaigns is certainly an art but one that must be constrained by scientific knowledge about audiences and their susceptibility and resistance to message formats and content. Research on two cases will be presented: public anti-smoking efforts and the introduction of the HPV vaccine.
