| Tiivistelmä: | Smoking cessation has been from several perspectives, including psychological, physiological, and pharmacological perspective. The author takes a sociological approach by examining quitting smoking as an adoption/diffusion process. In particular, adoption of quitting is seen as the equivalent of disadoption of cigarettes. As such, quitting represents a diffusion process, a social phenomenon that is viewed in considerably clearer focus when quitting among adults is segregated from cigarette adoption among younger persons. |
