Abstract

The seven item Intention, Self-Efficacy, and Self-Reported Smoking Behavior Measure (Conner et al., 2013) was developed to examine the relationship between intention, self-efficacy, and subsequent behavior in a sample of adolescents. Intention to Not Smoke was measured using three items (e.g., "I plan not to smoke this term") that were rated on a scale of one to five. Self-efficacy Over Not Smoking was assessed by three items that were averaged (e.g., "How much control do you feel that you have over not smoking this term?") also measured on a scale of one to five. Self-reported smoking behavior was measured using an item adapted from Jarvis (1997) to measure the frequency of past smoking behavior. The response format for this item was multiple-choice. The Cronbach's alphas for Intention to Not Smoke and the Self-efficacy Over Not Smoking were .82 and .67, respectively. (PsycTESTS Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)
