Exposure to school-based tobacco prevention interventions in low-income and middle-income countries and its association with psychosocial predictors of smoking among adolescents: a pooled cross-sectional analysis of Global Youth Tobacco Survey data from 38 countries

Conclusion Exposure to tobacco prevention programmes in schools is suboptimal in LMICs. Given the protective associations described in this study from school-based tobacco prevention programme exposure, it is imperative that national governments implement school-based programmes into ongoing tobacco control measures.
