It was stated that there was only one other study, which makes this a very understudied topic even though it has major benefits. The purpose of the study was to gain more information of the effects of the intervention cessations through social cognitive theory-based methods. The sample size was conducted to about 2,151 high school students. The study conducted a randomized-controlled trial of 59 different high schools, which was nine more participants to yield a 84.7% recruitment rate. Based on the sample size and criteria, I believe that the study sample is representative of a larger population. Most of the data was displayed in tables because the wide variety of social variables would be difficult to compare in any other way. The counseling periods were all conducted on guidelines to decrease bias and based on their willingness to change, which affected their subsequent calls in the study. The counseling was guided by the social cognitive theory, which means their questions and results were behavioral-based. The study complemented the first study that was replicated of smoking cessation interventions to improve resistance of smoking in
