1600 schoolchildren aged 13 to 18 answered an anonimus, self administered questionnaire, in a cross sectional study to estimate the prevalence of cigarette smoking in the high grades schools in Andorra. 46.6% answered they did smoke cigarettes, either daily (11.2%) or occasionally (35.4%). Ten per cent of actual smokers did already smoke at age 10, and 50% at age 13. More girls (48.8%) than boys (44.4%) smoked (p less than 0.05) but boys smoked a greater number of cigarettes (p less than 0.001). Ninety five percent smoked Virginia tobacco, and little more than 50% used filter tipped cigarettes. Two thirds of smokers inhaled the smoke of cigarettes; this was more common among daily smokers. Again two thirds of smokers answered they would be prepared to quit smoking. 31% of those who had tried smoking said they believed they would smoke in the future, while only 5.6% of those that never smoked previously said so (p less than 0.001). Actual smokers answered they believed that they would not smoke in the future much less often than non smokers. Parents let boys smoke more than girls when the children started doing so, particularly before age thirteen and after age fifteen. These are the first available data about the community studied describing some features of its cigarette smoking habit. Their knowledge may well help to plan disease protection and health promotion developments addressed to youngsters in Andorra.
在一项横断面研究中,1600名13至18岁的学童填写了一份匿名的自填问卷,以估计安道尔高中阶段学校的吸烟率。46.6%的人回答他们吸烟,其中每天吸烟的占11.2%,偶尔吸烟的占35.4%。10%的实际吸烟者在10岁时就开始吸烟,50%在13岁时开始吸烟。吸烟的女孩(48.8%)比男孩(44.4%)多(p<0.05),但男孩吸烟的数量更多(p<0.001)。95%的人吸弗吉尼亚烟草,略多于50%的人使用过滤嘴香烟。三分之二的吸烟者吸入香烟烟雾;这在每天吸烟的人群中更为常见。同样,三分之二的吸烟者回答他们愿意戒烟。31%尝试过吸烟的人表示他们认为自己将来会吸烟,而之前从未吸烟的人中只有5.6%这样说(p<0.001)。实际吸烟者回答他们认为自己将来不会吸烟的频率远低于不吸烟者。当孩子开始吸烟时,父母让男孩吸烟的情况比女孩更多,尤其是在13岁之前和15岁之后。这些是关于所研究社区吸烟习惯某些特征的首批可用数据。这些信息很可能有助于为安道尔针对青少年的疾病预防和健康促进发展制定计划。
