VanDyke, Esther M.; Riesenberg, Lee Ann
Journal of School Health, v72 n6 p221-25 Aug 2002
Evaluated the effectiveness of a tobacco intervention on preadolescents' tobacco use and attitudes. Surveys of students in intervention and non-intervention schools indicated that though not statistically significant, the number of smokers at the intervention school decreased from 43.2 to 31.1 percent after the intervention. Intervention students also predicted less smoking in 5 years and 20 years than did non-intervention students. (SM)
