Mediating Effects of Self-Efficacy in the Transtheoretical Model Among Adolescent Male Smokers in Korea
This study examined the moderating and mediating effects of self-efficacy on the relationships between predictor variables (decisional balance and processes of change) and the outcome variable (stages of change) using the Transtheoretical Model. Design: Cross-sectional data were collected from 147 c...
