Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine if interaction effects of selected psychosocial variables could be utilized as indicators of subsequent smoking behavior among youth who had originally identified themselves on a survey as having never smoked. Interaction effects of several psychosocial variables selected for study were found to be indicative of subsequent smoking behavior.Keywords
