contents Smokers’ reactions to cigarette package warnings with graphic imagery and with only text: A comparison between Mexico and Canada David Hammond Geoffrey T Fong James F Thrasher Edna Arillo-Santillán Salud Conclusión communication tobacco policy warning labels smoking cessation Objective. This comparison of population-based represen-tative samples of adult smokers in Canada (n=1 751) and Mexico (n=1 081) aimed to determine whether cigarette packages with graphic warning labels in Canada had a stronger impact than the text-only warning labels in Mexico. Mate-rials and Methods. Bivariate and multivariate adjusted models were used in this study. Results. Canadian smokers reported higher warning label salience (i.e., noticing labels & processing label messages) than Mexican smokers, and warning label salience independently predicted intention to quit. Moreover, Canadians had higher levels of knowledge about smoking-related health outcomes that were included as content on Canadian, but not Mexican, warning labels. Finally, a majority of Mexican smokers want their cigarette packs to contain more information than they currently con-tain. Discussion. These results are consistent with other studies that indicate that cigarette packages whose warning labels contain prominent graphic imagery are more likely than text-only warning labels to promote smoking-related knowledge and smoking cessation. 2007 artículo científico 0036-3634 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=10609013 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=106 Salud Pública de México application/pdf Instituto Nacional de Salud Pública Salud Pública de México (México) Num.2 Vol.49
