Four-Year Results of a Youth Smoking Prevention Program Using Assertiveness Training.
Del Greco, Linda; And Others
Adolescence, v21 n83 p631-40 Fall 1986
Seventh graders (N=161) participated in health education classes consisting of either an innovative smoking education program, the program plus assertiveness training, or a traditional smoking education program. Data collected four years later revealed no significant differences in smoking behavior, changes in assertion, or sex differences among groups. Results question assertiveness training usefulness for this population. (Author/NB)
