A review of research on cigarette smoking in Preventive Medicine in recognition of the journal's 50th anniversary
2022, Preventive MedicineCitation Excerpt :The mean RCR for the 23 articles meeting eligibility criteria was 3.63 (±0.87), which is at the 88th normalized percentile; 22 of these 23 articles (95.65%) had an RCR that exceeded the NIH median 1.0 and 50th normalized percentile, supporting greater than average influence for NIH-supported research in this field (Table 2). The higher impact prevention studies included highly innovative seminal studies by Botvin and colleagues combining education and life-skills training with elementary school students (Botvin et al., 1980; Botvin and Eng, 1982). Subsequent reports largely reflected innovations along the lines of integrating that approach with training on resisting psychological and social influences (Flay et al., 1995; Tell et al., 1984), use of mass media to increase reach (Flynn et al., 1997), involvement of parents and families (Curry et al., 2003), and extensions to older students (Gorini et al., 2014; Hiemstra et al., 2014).
