Summary:
- Findings provide strong evidence that racial/ethnic minority subpopulations, including non-Hispanic blacks and Hispanics, scored ads higher in perceived effectiveness (PE) regardless of race/ethnicity of the ad participant.
- Message characteristics (e.g., graphic visuals and emotional content) may play a more important role than race/ethnicity of ad participants.

Summary:
- After the launch of the nine-week-long 2014 Tips From Former Smokers (Tips) campaign, 1.83 million smokers attempted to quit smoking and an estimated 104,000 Americans quit smoking for good.
- The quit attempt rate among smokers increased by 17% and an additional 1.73 million intended to quit within 6 months.
- The Tips campaign continues to have a significant impact on cessation-related behaviors, providing further justification for the continued use of tobacco education campaigns to accelerate progress toward the goal of reducing adult smoking in the United States.
