Some implications of a mathematical theory relating neuronal geometry to the parameters of excitation in unconditioned response of planarians to electric shock are experimentally verified. The regions and patterns of primary neural excitation depend on the relation between the distribution of neural sizes and the wave form of the electric stimulus.

Evaluation of the Australian Medical Association drink-driving campaign in Wollongong.

A pilot public education campaign against drink-driving directed towards 18-24-year-old men in Wollongong in 1982 is described. Analysis suggested significant behavioural change in the target group. This was shown by a reduction in traffic accidents and by some reduction in drink-driving convictions. While a comparative assessment of the knowledge and attitudes of the community before and after the campaign showed a marked awareness of the campaign, attitudinal changes to drink-driving were equivocal.
