Preventing tobacco use among young people

S P Schinke et al. Health Soc Work. 1986 Winter.

Abstract

Preventing tobacco use in youths may be an easier task than helping adults break the habit of smoking and overcome its ill effects. Using experimental procedures based on social work techniques, this study suggests that social work efforts are an effective tool in programs and services that focus on primary prevention.
