Alcohol advertising regulation in Australia
by Associate Professor Sandra Jones, from the University of Wollongong
Centre for Health Behaviour and Communication Research
The centre is working on a
VicHealth-funded research grant with the Australian Drug Foundation
examining the effectiveness of the Australian alcohol advertising regulatory
system. Their other projects in this area include a preliminary study
on the relationship between children’s viewing of televised sports
(the only daytime programming allowed to carry alcohol advertising)
and alcohol awareness/attitudes; a review of the nature and extent of
on-premise and off-premise promotions of ready-to-drink alcohol products
in Wollongong; and a focus group study on the effect of “drink
cards” on young males’ drinking.
