Brubaker, Robert G.; Loftin, Tonetta L.

Journal of School Health, v57 n2 p64-67 Feb 1987

Analysis of questionnaire responses of 112 males between the ages of 10 and 14 revealed intention to use smokeless tobacco correlated significantly with attitude toward the behavior and perceived social pressure. Significant differences between those who intended to use smokeless tobacco and those who did not were found on several outcome and normative beliefs. (Author/CB)
