	298 fifth gradersĄŻ
motivational styles were measured using the Treatment Self-Regulatory
Questionnaire prior to and six weeks following a creative student-centred
anti-smoking intervention in secondary schools. In this paper we can clearly
show that our creative learning setting leads to a significant increase in
autonomous motivation and a decrease in controlled motivation. Autonomously
motivated pupils had less or no experience with cigarettes. PupilsĄŻ main
guesses about when or why young people smoke, are curiosity or being together
with others. We conclude that such a short-term preventative intervention with
different creative educational methods positively affects pupilsĄŻ health self-regulation.
