Schools have long been a priority setting for adolescent smoking prevention. The main focuses of schools included policy, climate change, and curriculum. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impacts of school-wide no smoking strategies and classroom-based prevention curriculum on smoking related knowledge, attitudes, behavior and skills. A cohort pre-post quasi-experimental design was chosen. Five hundred fifteen students selected from three vocational schools were divided into three groups by class unit. Experiment group 1 (El) received school-wide strategies and a six-session teaching. Experiment group 2 only received school-wide strategies. There was no treatment for the control group. Analysis of covariate was used to examine the effectiveness of the intervention. The major results of this study were as follows. 1. After the treatment of school-wide strategies and classroom-based education, smoking-related knowledge, attitudes, behavior, refusal skill and the possibility of taking alternatives of El were higher than those of the control group. 2. After the treatment of school-wide strategies, smoking-related attitude, self-efficacy and the possible of taking alternatives of E2 nere higher than those of the control group. 3. Classroom-based smoking prevention education had significant impacts on those who have lower knowledge, less refusal skill, and less likely to take alternatives. |
