Abstract Details

2009, Master of Arts, Marietta College, Psychology.
Tobacco use and nicotine addiction are significant health concerns in the United States. Early research regarding the relationship between self-efficacy (SE) and the addictive behaviors suggested that the higher the level of SE to quit smoking, the more likely an individual would be to successfully quit smoking (Condiotte & Lichtenstein, 1981). More recent research has shown that high, but not extremely high SE is ideal for successful smoking cessation (Staring & Breteler, 2004). Although the present study was not able to clarify the ideal SE percentage for those attempting to quit smoking, it did reveal important information about the relationship between SE and smoking cessation success.
