The variables of adolescent smokers that predicted an intention to quit smoking were smoking temptation, self re-evaluation, counter conditioning and stimulus control. The variables that predicted an action to quit smoking were self-efficacy for smoking abstinence, pros for smoking, self reevaluation, and self liberation. The variables of adult smokers that predicted an intention to quit were smoking temptation, pros for smoking, cons for smoking, self reevaluation. The variables that self liberation and predicted an action to quit smoking were self efficacy for smoking abstinence, smoking temptation, and counter conditioning.CONCLUSIONS:
