After considering how this demographic utilizes both traditional and new media, further examination was done on general health problems that affect this group. Three major health issues were then chosen for analysis. A relevant campaign for each issue was also evaluated, as were its overall marketing and communication efforts. The health problems and corresponding campaigns chosen include childhood obesity and the “Let’s Move” campaign, electronic aggression and the “Stop Bullying” campaign and youth suicide and the “WeCanHelpUs” campaign. From these analyses, recommendations for ways to improve each campaign were provided, as were general conclusions for reaching this demographic more efficiently and effectively.application/pdfengTweenTweensHealthChildhood obesityElectronic aggressionCyberbullyingYouth suicideTechnologyMediaRecommendationsHealth campaignsPublic health campaignsLet's MoveReachOutReach OutStop BullyingStop Bullying NowMarketing health issues to tweens : recommendations for reaching this demographic more effectivelythesis2012-02-202152/ETD-UT-2011-12-4446
