A selected number of lifestyle and risk behaviors of adolescents in relation to their smoking were studied using both longitudinal and cross-sectional analyses. Data of a national sample of 4,431 nonsmoking adolescents who participated in the 1989 Teenage Attitudes and Practices Survey and were re-interviewed in 1993 were analyzed. Adolescents who engaged in physical fights, engaged in drunk driving, and were risk-takers were more likely to be regular experimental smokers than adolescents who did not exhibit these behaviors. The data suggest that high-risk behaviors may cluster. Interventions may be necessary to target multiple risk behaviors and be more effective in changing adolescents' risk behaviors associated with smoking.
采用纵向和横断面分析方法,对青少年的一些与吸烟相关的生活方式和风险行为进行了研究。分析了参与1989年青少年态度与行为调查并于1993年再次接受访谈的4431名不吸烟青少年的全国样本数据。与未表现出这些行为的青少年相比,参与肢体冲突、酒后驾车且喜好冒险的青少年更有可能成为经常尝试吸烟的人。数据表明,高风险行为可能会聚集。可能有必要针对多种风险行为进行干预,以便在改变青少年与吸烟相关的风险行为方面更有效。
