Abstract
Peterson et al. (1) found no evidence for the long-term effectiveness of a school-based social-influences approach to smoking prevention. Appropriately, this finding received considerable media attention. It will, and should, have an impact on decision makers responsible for directing smoking-prevention initiatives. As Clayton et al. (2) noted in an accompanying editorial, the results from the Hutchinson Smoking Prevention Project (HSPP) are compelling because of the quality of the design and implementation.Keywords
