About This Topic

 

Ironically, the definition of the term “definition essay” is not very specific.  Definition essays are short pieces of writing on a particular topic.  However, not every essay on a topic can be properly labeled a definition essay.  Instead, a definition essay is an attempt to describe the topic thoroughly enough for the reader to understand it very well and might be compared to an encyclopedia entry for the topic.  Any of our example essays could provide a good start on a definition essay about the topic.  However, we have collected a sample of our best definition essays and included them below to help you explore the genre.

Comparing the health belief model and social cognitive theory in smoking cessation
It is estimated that there are more than 43 million adults who currently smoke in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (2012) smoking harms nearly every organ of the body. Smoking causes many diseases and reduces the health of smokers in general. The adverse effects of smoking cigarettes account for approximately 443,000, or nearly one in five deaths in the United States annually. Tobacco causes more deaths each year than all of the deaths caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), illegal drug use, alcohol use, motor vehicle injuries, and murders combined. This paper examines methods designed to promote well-being and smoking cessation.
