"The following questions will be examined: Which methods of communication (mass communication, Internet, personal communication) promise effective communication with smokers? Which messages (contents) promise effective communication with smokers? Which multipliers promise effective communication with smokers? Which settings promise effective communication with smokers? What communication problems arise in motivating smokers to stop smoking? Is it necessary to differentiate between target sub-groups when addressing smokers? Finally, after discussing the results presented, conclusions are drawn in Chapter 5 with respect to the effectiveness of communication measures and the requirements to be taken into account, particularly as regards mass media communication. Chapter 6 gives a complete review of the literature used. In conclusion, the Annex describes in detail the most important studies considered in this report." (Introduction, page 13)
