- Abstract
- This paper examines the antecedents of behavior modification in the context of
smoking cessation behavior. Event history analysis is used as a useful research method for
investigating a dynamic process. This method is especially useful for understanding the
process in which individuals move from one qualitative state to another and identifying the
variables which affect this process. A partially parametric model, called proportional hazard
model, is used to quantify the relationship between transition rate and a set of explanatory
variables. Theoretical and methodological implications are then drawn and discussed.
