烟草在线据《The Drum》报道编译 在为了设法让吸烟者戒烟而尝试了从图片健康警语、到电子卷烟和尼古丁贴膏等所有方法之后,健康专家们认为,他们已经想出了永远戒掉吸烟陋习的最佳方法——会说话的烟盒。
这种新技术将使烟盒每次被打开拿出一支卷烟时说出健康警语,解释吸几口烟如何把你送到患肺癌的道路上。这项新技术由英国癌症研究院提供资金,目的是为了阻止“烟草业的营销手段”,帮助吸烟者戒烟。
斯特灵大学烟草控制研究中心的克劳福德·穆迪谈起他的发明时说:“人们认为,他们用这种烟盒会感到非常恼火,但这种方法真的是捕捉注意力的好方法。”
反吸烟慈善机构吸烟与健康行动组织(ASH)的希拉·达菲对这种新研发的产品表示欢迎,她说:“为了向新消费者,主要是青年人营销自己的具有致瘾性的致命产品,烟草业购买了大量创造性的专门知识。”
评论:
促使烟民戒烟的会说话的烟盒,是个好主意。烟民每拿一支烟,就要听一次警语,这的确能起到一定的效果。不过,这能起到多少的作用的确有待商榷。首先,烟草公司不会主动采取这种敦促烟民戒烟的烟盒;其次,烟民不会主动购买这种烟盒,让自己厌烦。这两条接触烟民的主要途径被阻挡了。不过,这种烟盒还有两种途径接触到烟民:一种是政府强制烟草公司采用这种烟盒;另一种是希望烟民戒烟的烟民的家人朋友会购买这种烟盒送给烟民。尽管有这样效果好的东西,不过烟民是否会一直使用,会影响到最终的效果,此外,这种语音警语,应有变化,否则因多次重复,烟民会忽视这种警告,从而不能起到其应有的效果。这种新产品的效果如何,还待实践检验!
UK-Scotland: Cigarette Packets to Play Audio Health Warnings in Fresh Anti-smoking Drive
Having tried every trick in the book in order to try and get smokers to quit; from graphic warnings, to e-cigarettes and patches, health experts believe they have hit upon the perfect way to stub out the habit for good - talkative fag packets.
The new tech will see a health warning spoken by the packet each time it is opened for a fly cig, explaining how a few puffs could set you on the road to lung cancer and was funded by Cancer Research UK, in an effort to harness the 'marketing tools of the tobacco industry' to help smokers quit.
Crawford Moodie of Stirling University's Centre for Tobacco Control Research, said of his invention: "People thought they were annoying, but that is a really good way to capture attention."
Sheila Duffy of anti-smoking charity ASH welcomed the development, saying: "The tobacco industry buys a great deal of creative expertise to market its addictive and lethal products to new consumers, mainly young people." Enditem
