 The effect of designing tobacco package with warning labels can be explained by psychological theory. To quit smoking is regarded as hard work, because of its chemicals, nicotine. Nicotine is one of the most heavily used addictive drugs in the world. It makes smokers not be able to quit smoking and also accompany with withdrawal symptoms include anxiety, irritability,  difficulty concentrating and insomnia. Because of that addiction, smoking is leading cause of death in Australia, recording killing 15,000 people in a year. That means it really require people to have mental attitude about quitting smoking. Then, what psychological influences that smokers receive from the warning labels on package? 

 Above all, it is learning psychology It means that as we learn, we alter the way we perceive our environment, the way we interpret the incoming stimuli, and therefore the way we interact, or behave. When a smoker buy cigarette, he or she contact with the package images that shows harmful influences of smoking. As more he contact with it, he may think of bad effects of smoking, then consider to smoke or not.Given the reach and frequency of exposure, warning labels have the potential to have a significant impact on smoking behavior. 

 Also, is is also considered that the vision put a importance role on our mental. We think and feel a lot when we see something. When we watch scary movie, mental state of fear is created in our mind and when we watch sad scene, we may feel sadness in our mind. Sometimes, we take a rest through visiting art museum or traveling. All of things are related to vision. It is also applied to warning images on tobacco.  The images work as compelling stimuli (because of its formidability), so he or she may receive considerable confusion. Most of all smokers know that smoking is harmful, but rarely see its terrible outcomes directly. Therefore, the smoker want to avoid that horrible situation then effect of labeling will be more considerable.
