This experiment compared the effects of warnings placed before, during, or after television beer advertisements. Warnings before or after the ads led to higher knowledge scores and fewer negative comments about the warning presentation than did warnings scrolled during the ads; warnings after and during but not before the ads significantly decreased positive comments about the ads. Earlier findings regarding effects of warning topic and quantitative information in the warnings were replicated.

This experiment examines gender and ethnic differences in adolescent responses to TV beer advertising in sports and entertainment programming, as well as the relationship between such responses and present and planned alcohol use behavior. Female adolescents responded less positively than males to beer advertisements and to sports content of advertising, and more positively to nonbeer advertisements. However, positive responses to beer ads predicted alcohol use among female and male adolescents. No differences in response patterns to ads due to Latino ethnicity were found.
