This study aims to examine the psychosocial factors of young adult smokers from an occupational therapy perspective. Smoking is a leading cause of preventable disease and death worldwide and in Turkey. The age of initiation into smoking typically falls within adolescence or young adulthood. The psychosocial variables of young people can lead them to engage in smoking behavior. Moreover, smoking can lead to a variety of psychosocial problems. As a factor that causes both physical and psychological dependence, smoking negatively affects daily life in many areas including physical, psychological, economic, and social aspects, thereby adversely impacting occupational performance and participation. A smoke-free life is prioritized as a way to address lifelong health and well-being in prevention programs and protective health services. Occupational therapists are concerned with people’s occupations and how these occupations affect an individual’s health and well-being. However, the contributions of occupational therapy to smoking cessation and prevention remain limited. This article aims to understand the psychosocial factors in young people’s smoking behavior and to explain the effects of smoking on occupational performance and participation from an occupational therapy perspective. Additionally, the role of occupational therapy in the fight against addiction is discussed.
