BACKGROUND: The incidence of diseases due to tobacco consumption has increased, especially in developing countries, where around 90% of smokers start consuming tobacco before the age of 18 years. School-based smoking prevention programs can prevent smoking among adolescents. This program is often implemented in developing countries because it is considered cost-effective, and the results are promising. At present, the school-based smoking prevention program is expanding with many methods. AIM: This study aims to describe the various types of school-based smoking prevention interventions in developing countries. METHODS: This research applied a literature review approach with the process of collecting data through the Science Direct, ProQuest, EBSCO, and NCBI databases. Search literature was by keyword “smoking AND prevention AND school-based AND adolescent AND randomized controlled trials or randomized controlled trials.” Inclusion criteria used for data collection were studies on school-based smoking prevention interventions, full text, and journal publishing from 2015 to 2019, using English. The research conducted in developing countries and prevention interventions was not only for smoking in the traditional way but also in the form of other than the consumption of tobacco such as cigars, smokeless tobacco, and hookah or shisha. Exclusion criteria in this review were publication articles not in the form of original publications such as letters to editors, only abstracts, and books. RESULTS: The literature search results found 594 journals with details of 99 Science direct journals, ProQuest 385 journals, NCBI 85 journals, and 25 EBSCO journals. The entire database belongs to the inclusion criteria and only seven articles meet the requirements. The results of the analysis revealed that interventions conducted in school-based smoking prevention programs for adolescents in developing countries included the application of the anti-smoking curriculum, behavior change intervention (BCI), and peer education. CONCLUSION: Interventions considered useful for preventing smoking in adolescents are the anti-smoking curriculum, BCI, and peer education.

Cigarettes are still the most common cause of death worldwide. Today, the younger generation's smoking behaviour is expanding to children's ages. Therefore, attractive smoking prevention to children with media is necessary. The aim of this research is designing game-based learning health education media and analyzing the effect of health education on improving smoking prevention behaviour for school-age children. This study consists of 2 stages, designing Game-Based Learning with the Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC) method and quasi-experimental research with control and intervention groups. Determination of the research location used proportionate stratified random sampling and simple random sampling. The study took place at three elementary schools (SDN) in Yogyakarta with a sample of children 10-12 years old for a month. Testing games took 54 children, and the sample size was 88 children; 44 children for the control group and 44 children for the intervention group. The analysis used the Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney, and Cohen's Effect Size with the help of SPSS. Most respondents in testing game applications stated that the game function followed the objectives, increasing knowledge about smoking and its prevention. Respondents rated the game as easy to use, learn, and have a pleasant feeling when playing the game. All respondents also expressed their interest in distributing the game to their other friends. After one month of intervention, children's knowledge increased with a pvalue of 0.001, attitudes with a p-value of 0.022, and behaviour with a pvalue of 0.019. Health education using the Game-Based Learning method could improve school-age children's knowledge, attitudes, and behaviour.
