Evaluation of The Stanford Tobacco Prevention Toolkit

August 19, 2022 updated by: Bonnie Halpern-Felsher, Stanford University

A Randomized Controlled Trial to Evaluate The Stanford Tobacco Prevention Toolkit

The Stanford Tobacco Prevention Toolkit is a free online curriculum developed for use by educators and health professionals in providing tobacco-specific prevention education to middle and high school students. The aims of this study are to determine: (1) whether the Curriculum is effective in changing middle and high school students' resistance to using tobacco as well as knowledge of, attitudes towards, and intentions to use different tobacco products; and (2) whether the Curriculum is effective in changing middle and high school students' actual use of tobacco in the short-term.
