Purpose: Given the limited research on powdered alcohol, researchers examined YouTube videos on this controversial substance to gain insights into its use. Methods: Researchers thematically evaluated YouTube videos describing knowledge of powdered alcohol use, its effects, as well as the cultural context surrounding its use. Results: Of the videos that met study inclusion criteria (n = 210), 38% were coded as “news report,” 20% “opinion,” 19% “policy,” 11% “user-generated information,” 7% “education,” 3% “misuse,” 2% “development,” and 1% “use.” One in three videos about powdered alcohol included negative viewpoints about the product (n = 71, 34%). Discussion: The majority of reviewed YouTube videos described negative implications of consuming powdered alcohol (eg, high potential for unintentional over consumption). Translation to Health Education Practice: Findings suggest ways in which health researchers can use popular social media websites, such as YouTube, to address divides between sensationalized public perceptions of chronic health risks and evidence-based research of new alcoholic products. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
