Dear colleagues,
The June issue of Health Communication Science Digest (HCSD or Digest) is now available athttp://www.cdc.gov/healthcommunication/ScienceDigest/index.html
In the Digest this month several authors report research on new media in health communication. Some look at the role of social media in health campaign effectiveness (Avery & Lariscy; Friedman, et al.), others examine emerging uses of Facebook and Twitter in public health (Arcia, Ki & Nekmat; Lachlan, et al.; Rudat, et al.), and one paper details how audience feedback via new media alters organizational behavior (Lee, et al.). Evidence that health messaging impacts audience perceptions where delivered via new media (Paek, et al.; Saguy, et al.; Stavrositu & Kim) or multiple channels (Agaku & Ayo-Yusuf; Jensen, et al.) is also outlined. The use of fear appeals in health message design (Panic, et al.; Popova), health literacy (Chen & Feeley; Rubin, et al.; Verkissen, et al.), and social marketing strategies (Evans, et al.; Pringle, et al.) are the focus of several papers. And, the role of interpersonal communication in health campaign effectiveness is discussed by others (Hendricks, et al.; Kim).
Please remember that you can access all issues of the “Health Communication Science Digest” series online via the searchable Health Communication Science Digest Archive.
We hope that you find the Health Communication Science Digest useful and invite you to provide us with feedback for improvement. Please send us articles that you would like to share with others—articles you or your colleagues have published or found useful.
Please send your comments and questions to HCSD@cdc.gov.
