The Effect of Mobile-Based Anti-Smoking Nursing Interventions on Smoking Intention, Attitude, and Decision-Making Balance of Nursing Students
The Effect of Mobile-Based Anti-Smoking Nursing Interventions on Smoking Intention, Attitude, and Decision-Making Balance of Nursing Students
This clinical trial aims to understand whether a mobile-based anti-smoking nursing intervention can help nursing students change their smoking-related intentions, attitudes, and decision-making. The study focuses on nursing students who currently smoke.
The main questions this study aims to answer are:
Does the mobile-based nursing intervention reduce nursing students' intention to smoke?
Does the intervention change students' attitudes toward smoking?
Does the intervention affect how students weigh the benefits and harms of smoking when making decisions?
Researchers will compare nursing students who receive the mobile-based anti-smoking nursing intervention with students who do not receive this intervention.
Participants will use a mobile application developed by nurses. Through the application, participants will receive structured nursing support related to smoking prevention. Participants will complete questionnaires about their smoking intentions, attitudes, and decision-making at different time points during the study.
This study is a randomized controlled clinical trial designed to evaluate the effect of a mobile-based anti-smoking nursing intervention on smoking intention, attitudes toward smoking, and smoking-related decision-making balance among nursing students.
Eligible participants consist of nursing students who currently smoke. Following baseline assessments, participants are randomly assigned to either the intervention group or the control group to ensure comparability between groups at the start of the study.
Participants in the intervention group receive a mobile-based anti-smoking nursing intervention developed within the framework of the nursing process. The intervention is delivered through a structured mobile application and provides planned nursing support aimed at increasing awareness, supporting behavior change, and strengthening smoking-related decision-making. The intervention content is delivered over a defined period and is designed to promote active engagement.
Participants in the control group do not receive the mobile-based nursing intervention and continue under usual conditions throughout the study period.
Data are collected at baseline and at predefined follow-up time points using validated scales and a structured questionnaire. Smoking intention is assessed using the Smoking Intention Questionnaire, attitudes toward smoking are measured with the Smoking Attitudes Scale, and smoking-related decision-making balance is evaluated using the Smoking Decision Balance Scale. Changes over time are analyzed by comparing outcomes between the intervention and control groups.
This study is conducted as part of a doctoral dissertation.
