This paper addresses the important issue of how computer technology has been and should be used to foster health promotion. I The conclusions of our review of the field can be stated very briefly. The designers of computer assisted health education systems have typically tried to produce surrogates for other methods of education (such as lectures, health campaigns, or reading lists) rather than designing systems that utilize the unique advantages of computers in assisting learning and facilitating behavioral change. We see three fundamental advantages of computers: (a) they allow users to explore "what if' questions, simulate real world experiences, confidentiaIly and anonymously address sensitive subjects, and practice new skills; (b) they are ideally suited to request, organize, process, and quickly update infonna-
