Tobacco Smoking Behavior Clinical Trial
Official title:
Teens Against Tobacco Use: A Tobacco Prevention Curriculum and Advocacy Initiative
This study evaluates the efficacy of Teens Against Tobacco Use anti-tobacco presentations on tobacco use susceptibility in 6th through 8th grade. Students will be randomly assigned to either receive 3 anti-tobacco presentations or 3 presentations on a different topic, unrelated to tobacco.
The investigators will collaborate with Austin High School, Wiggs Middle School, and Guillen
Middle School of the El Paso Independent School District to implement smoke free youth
coalitions as an after school activity. The coalitions will follow the Teens Against Tobacco
Use (TATU) model developed by the American Lung Association, the American Cancer Society, and
the American Heart Association. Participating youth will be trained to develop and deliver
anti-tobacco presentations to younger students. Each school will have a separate youth
coalition operating under the guidance of an adult coordinator. High school youth will
present to middle school classes, whereas middle school youth will present to 4th and 5th
graders.
To evaluate the efficacy of the TATU program, we will randomly assign students in physical
education classes to receive TATU presentations or a control condition. Confidential surveys
about tobacco will be administered at the beginning and end of the school year. Analyses will
compare intervention and control students on smoking susceptibility, perceptions of harm from
tobacco use, tobacco industry perceptions, and social norms on tobacco use.
