Interest in adolescent smoking cessation has increased dramatically over the past several years, as researchers and practitioners have acknowledged the high rates of adolescents who smoke regularly and the low probability that adolescents who are regular smokers will stop on their own. The evidence base behind smoking cessation interventions for adolescents is also now starting to grow, but unfortunately the studies to date have frequently been plagued by major methodological problems. This paper summarises research conducted on adolescent smoking cessation, notes some of the methodological limitations of prior work, highlights approaches that show promise, discusses some of the challenges involved in addressing adolescent smoking cessation, and makes recommendations for future work.
在过去几年中,对青少年戒烟的关注急剧增加,因为研究人员和从业者已经认识到经常吸烟的青少年比例很高,而且经常吸烟的青少年自行戒烟的可能性很低。针对青少年的戒烟干预措施背后的证据基础目前也开始增多,但不幸的是,迄今为止的研究经常受到重大方法学问题的困扰。本文总结了关于青少年戒烟的研究,指出了先前研究在方法上的一些局限性,强调了有前景的方法,讨论了在解决青少年戒烟问题中涉及的一些挑战,并对未来的工作提出了建议。
