We collected practical tips from physicians who do such counseling to help others interested in conducting such counseling while perhaps feeling insecure about how to implement it.DesignQualitative interview study.Setting/ParticipantsSixteen physicians who had made clinical firearm safety counseling part of their practice.MethodsAn interview guide included questions about how, when, and with whom participants were undertaking firearm safety counseling, motivations, experiences with the counseling, patient reactions, and barriers and facilitators. The interviews were analyzed using inductive thematic analysis.ResultsMost (11 out of 16) physicians were in primary care/family medicine or pediatrics; 54% worked in urban, 27% in rural/small town, and 20% in suburban settings. Three takeaways were reported by virtually every participant: firearm safety counseling is not difficult; almost all patients react positively, and occasional skeptical reactions are easily defused; and this counseling does not take much time. Participants kept conversations nonjudgmental and focused on safety, not on firearm ownership itself. Participants' strong convictions that it was their responsibility to address firearm safety helped them overcome barriers such as lack of time, training, and guidelines.ConclusionParticipants shared actionable ideas on how to facilitate firearm safety counseling, exemplifying ways to encourage firearm safety behaviors.","PeriodicalId":7481,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Health Promotion","volume":" ","pages":"852-860"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145848802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To inform the development of future campaigns, this study aimed to document the communication approaches being used in vaping prevention advertisements internationally and understand the extent to which evidence-based principles are being adopted in practice.DesignHealth campaign video advertisements discouraging vaping were sourced online. Eligible ads were produced in English, released between January 2013 and December 2024, and no longer than 60 seconds in length.SettingOnline.SampleA total of 199 unique ads from 5 countries met inclusion criteria.AnalysisAds were coded according to a pre-defined framework of advertising approaches.ResultsThe majority of ads used high certainty language (89%) and were negatively valenced (88%). Most adopted a cognitive approach (70%) and were assessed as having a dogmatic language style (64%). Two-thirds (66%) communicated messages relating to the chemical ingredients present in vapes. In terms of execution styles, inducing fear was most common (74% of ads).ConclusionWhile some of the approaches being adopted in real-world vaping prevention ads have demonstrated efficacy in the context of simulated experiments (e.g., high linguistic certainty), other approaches do not (e.g., dogmatic language). Additional research exploring the outcomes of specific approaches is needed to guide the development of optimally effective vaping prevention communications.","PeriodicalId":7481,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Health Promotion","volume":" ","pages":"8901171261483783"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2026-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148808180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
