To describe the prevalence of parental prompting to smoke (eg, parent requests that their child light the parent's cigarette in his/her own mouth) in a sample of families, and to assess the agreement between child and parent reports of the prompting behaviors.
DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: A total of 3,624 adolescents from 10 middle/junior high schools completed baseline surveys. Parents identified as smokers in these surveys were contacted to complete a telephone survey. These analyses included 270 parent/child pairs. Fifty-one percent of parents were Latino American, 51% had the equivalent of a high-school diploma, 83% were employed when surveyed, and the median household monthly income was between $2,200 and $2,599.
Students completed a paper-and-pencil survey assessing demographic characteristics, seven parental prompts to smoke, past month smoking, parental smoking, acculturation, and familism. A similar questionnaire was developed to collect information by telephone from smoking parents. Concordance between child- and parent-reported prompting was > 85% for five of seven prompts. However, the reported prevalence of six of the seven prompts was lower among parents than children. Thirty-two percent of mothers and 17% of fathers reported prompting their children to bring cigarettes to parents (the most common prompt). Students reported that 62% of their mothers and 54% of their fathers prompted them to bring their cigarettes, a substantial discrepancy in both cases.
Child-reported prompting prevalence was consistently higher than parents' reports, with the biggest discrepancies between requests to clean ashtrays and bring cigarettes, the two most common prompts. In subsequent studies of parental prompting, it is advisable to collect data from both children and parents and to validate the accuracy of the sources.
描述在一个家庭样本中父母促使孩子吸烟（例如，父母要求孩子在其自己口中点燃父母的香烟）的普遍程度，并评估孩子与父母关于促使行为报告之间的一致性。
设计、背景和参与者：来自10所初中/初级中学的总共3624名青少年完成了基线调查。在这些调查中被确定为吸烟者的父母被联系以完成电话调查。这些分析纳入了270对亲子。51%的父母是拉丁裔美国人，51%拥有高中同等学历，83%在接受调查时已就业，家庭月收入中位数在2200美元至2599美元之间。
学生完成了一份纸笔调查，评估人口统计学特征、七种父母促使吸烟的行为、过去一个月的吸烟情况、父母吸烟情况、文化适应和家庭主义。开发了一份类似的问卷以通过电话从吸烟的父母那里收集信息。七种促使行为中有五种，孩子报告的和父母报告的一致性超过85%。然而，七种促使行为中有六种报告的普遍程度在父母中低于孩子。32%的母亲和17%的父亲报告促使孩子给父母拿香烟（最常见的促使行为）。学生报告称，62%的母亲和54%的父亲促使他们拿香烟，在这两种情况下差异都很大。
孩子报告的促使吸烟普遍程度一直高于父母的报告，在清理烟灰缸和拿香烟这两种最常见的促使行为方面差异最大。在随后关于父母促使行为的研究中，建议从孩子和父母双方收集数据并验证信息来源的准确性。
