Question 3

What prevention program techniques seem most effective in keeping adolescents from smoking? Which are not effective?

Accepted Answer

The most effective prevention program techniques in keeping adolescents from smoking include education and awareness campaigns, peer-led programs, and family-based interventions. Education and awareness campaigns provide information about the dangers of smoking and the benefits of not smoking, while peer-led programs utilize the influence of friends and classmates to promote healthy behaviors. Family-based interventions involve parents and other family members in discussions about smoking and its consequences, creating a supportive environment for non-smoking behavior.

On the other hand, prevention program techniques that are not as effective in keeping adolescents from smoking include scare tactics and one-time interventions. Scare tactics, such as graphic images or videos depicting the negative health effects of smoking, may initially deter some adolescents from smoking, but the impact tends to be short-lived. One-time interventions, such as a single presentation or event, are also less effective as they do not provide ongoing support and reinforcement for non-smoking behavior.

In conclusion, prevention program techniques that focus on education, peer influence, and family involvement are most effective in keeping adolescents from smoking, while scare tactics and one-time interventions are not as effective in the long term.
