Impact of the graphic Canadian warning labels on adult smoking behaviour
Graphic cigarette warning labels serve as an effective population based smoking cessation intervention. The findings add to the growing literature on health warnings and provide strong support for the effectiveness of Canada's tobacco labelling policy

It does this by examining the concept of culture through a number of case studies from…

Political Realities and Cultural Specificities in Contemporary Macedonian Jokes

L'A. montre en quoi les limites du monde des plaisanteries ont change en Macedoine depuis la chute de l'Ex-Yougoslavie. Dans les plaisanteries les concernant et concernant les anciens Yougoslaves, les Macedoniens prennent des elements anciens et les reformulent afin d'etablir un commentaire iron…

In 1978, the excavation of the Macedonian royal tombs at Vergina in north Greece gave a more physical aspect to the historical place of Philip and of Alexander the Great. These archaeological finds now have an active role in the region's politics, where the present is again being re-made by the pictures of the past
Six-year follow-up of the first Waterloo school smoking prevention trial
This paper reports six-year follow-up data from the first large-scale randomized trial of the social influences approach to smoking prevention. In 1979, 22 schools were randomly assigned to program or control conditions. Students in program schools received a social influences curriculum in six core and two maintenance sessions in grade 6, two booster sessions in grade 7, and one booster session in grade 8. All students were assessed at pretest (…
