“…In this study, the analysis of the social reaction path in PWM showed that attitudes, subjective norms and positive prototype of participants predict the willingness to SS. Besides, there is a positive and significant relationship between these structures and behavioral willingness, which is consistent with the findings of earlier studies 28,30,36 .…”

“…Various pathways have been identified as predictors of behavior. In some studies 30,40,42 , the behavioral intention has been introduced as an important predictor of behavior, which is consistent with the present study. However, other studies 28,32 reported behavioral willingness as a more important predictor of behavior.…”

“…The prevalence of SS was 32.2% in the participants who reported the experience of SS during their lifetime, which is consistent with the results of some studies 22 , 26 , 27 . However, the prevalence of SS experience in the present study is higher than three other studies 28 - 30 , which may be due to differences in sample size, easy access to shisha, and demographic and geographical differences in the target population.…”

“…This means that with positive feelings and attitudes toward SS in adolescents and the encouragement of their friends and family to SS, the intention to SS will be higher. Also, based on the findings of this study, the structures of attitude, subjective norms and behavioral willingness are effective predictors of the behavioral intention, as found by earlier research 30,36 . There was a study, however, where attitude could not predict the intention of behavior 28 , and yet, based on the reason path, attitude is expected to predict behavioral intention 37 .…”

INTRODUCTION Given the increasing prevalence of shisha smoking (SS) in adolescent females, it is necessary to determine the factors influencing adolescent's choice of shisha. This study aimed to determine predictors of shisha smoking among adolescent females in Western Iran based on the Prototype-Willingness Model (PWM). METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted on 1302 adolescent females in Kermanshah city, western Iran, in 2019. The method was multi-stage sampling with a systematic random approach. Data were collected using a questionnaire consisting of sociodemographic questions, history of shisha smoking, and Prototype-Willingness Model structure-based questions. Data were analyzed using SPSS 22 software. Statistical tests included descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation test, and linear and logistic regression analyses. RESULTS The prevalence of current consumers of shisha was 20.4%. Attitude and behavioral willingness and subjective norms were the most important predictors of behavioral intentions, whereas subjective norms, attitudes, and prototypes were the most important predictors for behavioral willingness. The results obtained from the logistic regression analysis revealed that both pathways of PWM constructs (behavioral intention OR=1.37; behavioral willingness OR=1.32) were significant predicting factors for shisha smoking among adolescent females. CONCLUSIONS Given the efficient role of behavioral willingness and intention for shisha smoking (SS) in adolescent females, it is necessary to consider these structures in designing educational strategies for the prevention of adolescent smoking.

Background: Given the increasing trend of Water pipe (WP) smoking in adolescent females, it is necessary to use effective educational strategies in preventing WP smoking in developing countries. We aimed to determine effectiveness of e-learning program in preventing WP smoking in adolescent females west of Iran using prototype-willingness model. Study Design: A randomized controlled trial. Methods: This study was performed on 221 adolescent females in Kermanshah City, Iran during 2019-2020. Multistage random sampling was used. Data collection tool included a researcher-made questionnaire based on prototype-willingness model. E-learning-based intervention program included 5 training sessions. Participants were followed up for 3 months after the intervention. The data were analyzed using SPSS software. Results: The mean scores of attitude, subjective norms, prototype, intention, and behavioral willingness structures were similar in both experimental and control groups before the educational intervention. However, after educational interventions, mean scores of structures of positive attitude towards WP, subjective norms about WP smoking, positive prototype about WP smokers, intention, and behavioral willingness towards WP smoking were decreased in the experimental group. Moreover, frequency of WP smoking was decreased in the experimental group compared to the control group after the educational intervention (P=0.003). Conclusion: The use of e-learning-based interventions is an educational strategy for reducing WP smoking in adolescent females.
