Brief Summary

Before February 2018 the baseline survey is conducted in about 60 class in Brazilian secondary schools. These classes are randomized to control and intervention group in a 1/1 manner. A few weeks thereafter medical students from the local medical school visit the schools and perform a smoking prevention intervention called "photoaging mirroring intervention" which takes about 45 minutes.

The primary endpoint is the difference in the chance of smoking prevalence between the two groups.
