Abstract
Purpose
To update a systematic review published in 2012 that identified predictors of cigarette
smoking cessation among adolescents.
Methods
The PubMed and Web of Science databases were searched for relevant articles published
between September 2010 and January 2018, using the following keywords: smoking OR
tobacco OR cessation; quit OR stop; longitudinal OR prospective OR cohort. Our search
identified 3,399 articles. Inclusion criteria included longitudinal studies (intervention
and cohort studies) evaluating cigarette smoking cessation in young people (aged 10–24 years).
After screening, in total, 34 articles were included in the review.
Results
In total, 63 predictors of smoking cessation among adolescents were identified, with
36 new predictors that were not identified in the previous review: nine sociodemographic
factors, 13 psychosocial factors, five behavioral factors, 19 social influences factors,
eight smoking related variables, six environmental factors, 2 health related variables,
and one genetic factor.
Conclusions
To increase the probability of successful smoking cessation, strategies targeting
young smokers should consider both individual and environmental predictors of cessation.
