My problem title is "Measurement of Cigarette Smoking Attitude Inventory or Scale."

My research work title is "Personality and Attitude of Cigarette Smoking among College Students: A Survey of College Students' Smoking Habits, Personality Factors, and Cigarette Smoking Attitudes."

Personality measurement scales are available, but a cigarette smoking attitude inventory is not available. Therefore, please provide the procedure or link to download the scale developed by the W.H.O.

Thank you.

Alphonse, with regard to any habit, a person first develops a thought to give it a "try." Then, when the person further develops that thought positively, they act upon it. The satisfaction derived from that action leads to the repetition of the action, eventually forming a habit. In a way, the person unwittingly trains the mind to accept the habit. Subsequently, the mind takes control over the person, resulting in the person becoming a victim of the very deed they initially tried. When the person truly desires to break free from the habit due to its detrimental effects, the mind engages in its own deceptive game, providing numerous reasons to maintain the habit.

Unless the individual harbors a sense of guilt and willpower to eliminate the habit, their efforts may go unheard. This insight stems from my experience as a Psychological Counselor. I presume you may be a secondary smoker. I appreciate your concern for our friend.

Yes, sir. What you said is absolutely correct, and I am somewhat satisfied with your answer. However, habits like reading, listening, and yoga are good habits that don't come as easily as a habit like smoking cigars. What I am saying is, in the world, bad habits pass into the human nervous system very quickly compared to good habits. We have to adapt to good habits, whereas bad habits tend to attract us. People tend to give more importance to attraction rather than adaptation.
