Abstract: In Japan, teacher and student is randomly matched in the first year of elementary school. Under the quasi-natural experimental setting, I examine how learning in female teacher homeroom class in the elementary school influence pupils’ smoking behaviour after they become adult. I found that pupils are unlikely to smoke later in life if they belonged to female teacher homeroom class in pupil’s first year of school.
