Cognitive Perceptions of Importance In Students' Decisions About Smoking.

Duryea, P. Elias; And Others

Health Education (Washington D.C.), v12 n5 p4-8 Sep-Oct 1981

A study investigated the decision-making process regarding the cigarette smoking of students in grades 5, 7, 9, and 11. Results indicate that greater emphasis needs to be placed on the social factors of the decision-making process in school health education programs and that the emphasis on social concerns should increase with grade level.
