Vanessa - I am not sure this is what you are in need of, but you might
find the Criteria for Developing Effective, Persuasive Health
Communication Tools (with checklist) or "Message Review Tool" for
short, from The Health Communication Unit useful.  It is a checklist
to assess the effectiveness of a message geared to health promotion
messages and can be found at
