This article summarizes the conceptual approach taken by the Risk and Youth: Smoking Project to assess the dynamics of smoking uptake and resistance among young adolescents and to develop widely applicable educational interventions to prevent or postpone the decision to smoke. Evidence is presented for the view that to be effective, interventions should work within the context of the naturally-occuning motivations of adolescence, and provide a range of problem-solving skills for coping with larger issues of personal/social significance that reduce the likeli-hood of conflict resolution in favor of smoking
