A questionnaire-based survey was used and data was collected from a national sample (1,364 people: 536 male and 828 female; average age 22,71 years and SD=3,128). The paper analyses only the items relevant for smoking behavior. Using a quasi-experimental design, we found a significant difference determinated by father's model ( (1364) = 0,158, p < 0,05), mother's model ( (1362) =0,155, p < 0,05), and brothers/sisters' model ( (1362) =0,219, p < 0,05), regarding smoking behavior.
