Use of online promotion to encourage patient awareness of aspirin use to prevent heart attack and stroke
BACKGROUND: Literature on health promotion evaluation and public understanding of health suggests the importance of investigating behaviour over time in conjunction with information environment trends as a way of understanding programme impact. We analysed population response to online promotion of an educational tool built by the Ask About Aspirin campaign in the USA to inform people about aspirin as a preventive aid. METHODS: We collected 156 w…
Anticipating Change, Sparking Innovation
As the 100th anniversary of the 1915 Welch-Rose report approaches, the Association of Schools and Programs of Public Health (ASPPH) has been pursuing two initiatives to spark innovation in academic partnerships for enhancing population health: (1) Framing the Future: The Second 100 Years of Education for Public Health and (2) Reconnecting Public Health and Care Delivery to Improve the Health of Populations. We describe how ASPPH-member schools an…
Individual and Neighborhood Socioeconomic Status Effects on Adolescent Smoking
Objectives. We examined the prospective effects of parental education (as a proxy for individual socioeconomic status [SES]) and neighborhood SES on adolescent smoking trajectories and whether the prospective effects of individual SES varied across neighborhood SES. Methods. The study included 3635 randomly recruited adolescents from 5 age cohorts (12–16 years) assessed semiannually for 3 years in the Minnesota Adolescent Community Cohort study. …
Social Capital and Health
Objectives. We explored the effects of community integration and pluralism on recall of cardiovascular disease health information messages. Methods. With 1980–1983 data from the Minnesota Heart Health Program, we examined whether ties to community groups were associated with recall of health messages, and whether this relation was modified by size and degree of differentiation of the community. Results. A higher level of civic engagement through …
Mass Media and Health Promotion
The Knowledge Gap Hypothesis
Citizens’ acquisition of mass media information has long been a concern of social scientists and policy makers. The conventional wisdom that increasing the flow of information will ensure its widespread acquisition has been criticized based on studies showing inequitable information acquisition between groups of higher and lower socioeconomic status. The knowledge gap hypothesis, formalized in 1970, posits increasing differences in knowledge due …
Evaluating quality and sustainability
Many community-based studies have been implemented nationally and internationally in the last two decades. Quality and sustainability are desirable qualities of such health-promotion programs, yet have received relatively little attention in the literature. This paper begins to address these issues by examining the quality of programs that were incorporated and continued by the three intervention communities of the Minnesota Heart Health Program …
Community type and the diffusion of campaign information
This study explored the role of community pluralism in the diffusion of information. More specifically, this paperused community pluralism as a contextual variable in studying the mediating impact of SES variables on program awareness and name recall of a cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention program in three communities of differing complexity. Data for this study came from 14 surveys over a period of five years. The study found that program a…
