The Association between Teacher Attitudes, Behavioral Intentions, and Smoking and the Prevalence of Smoking among Seventh-Grade Students.

de Moor, Carl; And Others

Adolescence, v27 n107 p565-78 Fall 1992

Surveyed seventh grade students and teachers from 23 schools to determine association between teacher attitudes, behavioral intentions, and smoking behavior and prevalence of student smoking. Teacher attitudes toward smoking policies were strongly related to current smoking behavior of teacher but not consistently related to student smoking. Teacher intentions to intervene were strongly associated with smoking prevalence only among boys. (Author/NB)
