  2. Smoke-free legislation and cessation “Legislative bans reduced exposure to secondhand smoke. (…) There are fewer data measuring smoking prevalence and smoking behaviour with either no change or a downward trend reported” (Cochrane review Callinan, Clarke, Doherty, & Kelleher, 2010)

  3. Smoke-free legislation and cessation “The introduction of comprehensive smoke-free legislation has increased the rate at which smoking prevalence was declining in some locations, but in the majority of jurisdictions had no measurable impact on existing trends in smoking prevalence” (Bajoga, Lewis, McNeill, & Szatkowski, 2011)

  15. Conclusion • Policies influence smoking cessation through policy-specific variables and psychosocial mediators. • Support for smoke-free legislation and attitudes about quitting are crucial in increasing intention to quit. • Subjective norms about quitting can be changed by creating awareness of the harm of (second-hand) smoking.

  16. Future research • Behavioural mediators (e.g. voluntary smoking bans, compliance with smoke-free legislation). • Implementation characteristics(e.g. comprehensive vs. partial, media attention). • Other countries and other policies.

  17. Policy implications Aim to increase support forsmoke-free legislation and attitudes favourable to quitting (e.g. with media campaigns andmedia advocacy)
