D. Waiters completed her Ph.D. in Radio-Television-Film, with a specialization
in ethnic minorities and mass media, from the University of Texas at Austin in
1999, joining the Prevention Research Center soon afterward. Her
research focuses on the relationship between mass media and adolescent morbidity,
particularly, the depiction of substance-related themes in popular youth culture
and the prevalence of substance-related health problems in adolescent populations. Currently,
she is working on a supplement to Dr. Grube's Alcohol Advertising project, studying
the relationship between malt liquor television commercials and malt liquor-related
fun-based websites. Dr. Waiters is also the principal investigator of an NIAAA
grant on the presentation of alcohol and malt liquor in popular music. Proceed
