The research tools include questionnaire and the development program to reduce smoking behaviors. In the first phase, data from 600 adolescents are collected using a questionnaire. The sample comprises 91 out-of-school smokers. The experimental research is derived from the Fagerstrom test for nicotine dependence (FTND) The scores from questionnaire ranges from 4 to 5 indicated the risk of smoking behavior in the total number of 34 smokers. Twenty persons recruited to participate in two groups. The first-10-persons group is called the controlled group and the second-10-person group is called the experimental group. Both groups should attend the activities provided and observed the pre-test, post-test and follow-up tests. Analyses were executed using descriptive statistics, multiple regression technique, and t-test. Research findings show that two key variables, familyfactors and social norms, are significantly related to smoking behaviors. Therefore, these variables are taken to develop the program in phase two of the study. The therapy program developed by applying family factors and social norms in combination with the cognitive behavior therapy of Beck (1967) and future orientation. It comprises 3 steps, 8 activities, 8 times, 60-90 minutes for each, once a week and continuously for 10 weeks.
