The proportion of smokers who relapsed was 59.4% (n=168). The significant associated factors to relapse were age less than 40 years old, marital status , Fagerstrom score, duration of smoking and stressful life event. Conclusion: The prevalence of relapsed is high which is comparative to many other studies. For smokers who are attending quit smoking clinics, special attention should be given to those with the associated factors to make our quit smoking clinic more successful. 2011 Thesis http://eprints.usm.my/37927/ http://eprints.usm.my/37927/1/Pages_from_Norihan_Abu_Bakar-R_MEDICINE.pdf application/pdf en public masters Universiti Sains Malaysia Pusat Pengajian Sains Perubatan
