There is evidence of a "promising practice" from CDC on signage
relevant to physical activity behavioural choice points regarding use
of stairs vs. elevators / escalators. See
http://thecommunityguide.org/pa/default.htm  Their review in the area
of sexual health behaviour change strategies is still in progress.

In general, signs could be considered part of a health communication
campaign, as a narrow-cast media strategy, and there are links to
books and other resources on this subject on the Web site of The
Health Communication Unit (U of Toronto) - www.thcu.ca - in the
"Information and Resources" section.
