| dc.description.abstract | My interest in this research lies specifically in investigating how message design theories work in and are applied to anti-drug messages. I pay particular attention to which aspects of the messages are effective and how this knowledge confirms, expands, or contradicts current approaches to designing anti-drug campaigns. This research focuses primarily on anti-methamphetamine messages because of the expanding awareness of and attention paid to this wide-reaching epidemic. Although the history of meth, and its effects on communities and individual health are important to this story, they are presented here as context for the more critical issue of how to change attitudes toward methamphetamines through the mass media. | en |
