Tobacco use is a worldwide epidemic. In Argentina there are eight millions of smokers and two million want to quit smoking, but the health team is not motivated or prepared to answer to this demand. Psychologists are little aware of the importance of their role in tobacco control. The population of this study is the students of the Faculty of Psychology. Objectives: a) establish the prevalence of tobacco use; b) know the level of information of the consequences of smoking; c) Explore the attitudes towards smoking and the role of the psychology in tobacco control management. In the first part of the study an adapted and validated version of the Global Health Professional Survey will be taken. This article develops the process of validation and presents an adapted version of the instrument.
