Abstract
This study pretested audience interest in 25 potential message concepts to be used in a mass media campaign designed to change knowledge, attitudes, and behavior regarding lung disease. A group of 150 respondents reflecting specific target audiences (smokers, older persons, etc.) rated each concept on the basis of a two-sentence description using Haskins' 0--100 scale. Results indicated that older persons were most interested in message concepts suggesting ways to deal with various lung disease symptoms, and smokers showed highest interest in concepts offering positive and straightforward advice on how to quit smoking, rather than concepts that were negative, cute, or satirical in approach. Recommendations based on audience interest were made for the design of future lung disease media campaigns.
