Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Melanie Wakefield (Principal investigator) ,  A/Pr Sarah Durkin ,  Prof Simone Pettigrew

Brief description This research will develop differently worded and formatted warnings about a wide range of harms of alcohol and assess adult drinkers’ responses to them, compared to current messages on alcohol containers. The study will use population surveys, discussion groups, message ratings and an experimental study with follow-up to determine the content and format of warnings with the greatest potential to encourage drinkers to reduce their alcohol-related risk.
