Abstract
Abstract This study investigates smoking intention, nicotine dependence, and mindfulness among Dai Lue adolescents (N = 1322, ages = 14–18), an understudied Buddhist ethnic minority in China. Based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), mindfulness showed a negative association with smoking intention. However, for participants with nicotine dependence, the mindfulness-intention association diminished, while volitional processes remained salient. Results from this study contribute to debates in the literature regarding habit versus planned behavior, and provide empirical support for integrating mindfulness into the TPB. The cognitive pathways identified could be targeted in anti-smoking interventions to curb the high prevalence of smoking among Dai Lue adolescents.
