Abstract

College students' attitudes toward smoking and changes in attitudes were assessed with the Personal Attribute Inventory, which is composed of 50 negative and 50 positive adjectives from Gough's Adjective Check List. Common sense quality of the data, including the change in attitude after passage of a law against smoking in elevators suggests the usefulness of the inventory.
