To explore the impact of new media use on adolescents' smoking behavior has become an important field as smoking is a common health risk behavior and the popularity rate of new media is increasing among adolescents. At present, new media has gradually become an important way for dissemination of tobacco promotion and control information, which has negative and positive effects on adolescents' smoking behavior, respectively. Meanwhile, new media has also played an active role in the prevention of smoking behavior and the intervention of smoking cessation behavior among adolescents. This paper aimed to systematically review the influence of new media in tobacco information dissemination and its role in adolescents' smoking intervention, so as to provide references for exploring effective tobacco control measures and expect to reduce smoking rate among Chinese adolescents.
