James F. Evans Collection, Diet and health attitudes affect food consumption behavior. The National Dairy Board provided information on the benefits of calcium and dairy products in a 1985-86 national advertising campaign.

The consumption data were from the USDA "Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals." (original)
cited reference, The Beef Promotion and Research Act of 1985 led to significant increases in the generic promotion of beef in the United States. Widely familiar television advertising campaigns distributed through national television networks have been among the most visible outgrowths of this vigorous promotional effort. This study reports the results of econometric analysis of fresh beef consumption data for households participating in a controlled, experimental investigation of the television advertising's effects on beef demand. While factors such as price, income and household demographics are shown to be significant determinants of fresh beef purchases, the advertising campaigns apparently did not increase and may even have decreased, the panelists' demand for beef.
