Abstract

Increasingprevalenceof cigarettesmokingin general,especiallyin adolescents,is oneof the most important problems of our society. Therefore, in this research, it was tried to study the effect of instructing assertiveness and problem solving skills on cigarette smoking prevention and reduction. Total sample size of this research was 112 students from 10theducational district of Tehriin city. They assigned into four groups (two experimental groups and two control groups). The sample size of smokers experimental and control groups was 48 (24 persons in each group). Also, the sample size of non-smokers experimental and control groups was 64 (32 persons in each group). In this study, after initial interviewing and identifying smokers and non-smokers, and the amount of cigarettes were smoked by smokers, assertiveness and problem solving skills were instructed to the experimental groups. The control groups spend their regular programs and no information about these skills was instructed to them. Six months later, after training, the number of students" cigarettes being smoking and their attitude toward cigarette were measured. After collecting data, they were analysed by analysis of variance, follow up tests, t test for dependent groups, and chi-square test. The obtained results showed that instructing assertiveness and problem solving skills have a significant effect on cigarette smoking reduction (level of significant was %99), and prevention (level of significant was %99). In this manner, according to obtained results, instructing these skills has no significant effect on creating negative attitude toward smoking. According to obtained results, we can reduce the number of cigarettes of smokers, and the number of cigarettes smoking in society by instructing assertiveness and problem solving.
