To describe college students' decisions related to tobacco use.
A sample of 49 smokers and 51 nonsmokers were asked about the smoking continuum of starting smoking, continuing to smoke, and tobacco cessation. An investigator-developed questionnaire was used to determine tobacco use and whether prevention and cessation messages were perceived as effective. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and qualitative descriptive analysis.
Peer pressure was the greatest influencing factor for beginning to smoke, and health was the major reason for not beginning to smoke. Addiction and stress maintained smoking. Both smokers and nonsmokers identified cessation strategies.
Every interaction with youth is another opportunity to assess smoking status. Recommendations from teens for cessation programs identified in this study may be more attractive to teens and young adults than the current standards related to strategies for adults.
描述大学生与烟草使用相关的决定。
对49名吸烟者和51名不吸烟者的样本询问了吸烟的连续过程，包括开始吸烟、持续吸烟和戒烟。使用研究者编制的问卷来确定烟草使用情况以及预防和戒烟信息是否被认为有效。数据采用描述性统计和定性描述分析进行分析。
同伴压力是开始吸烟的最大影响因素，而健康是不开始吸烟的主要原因。成瘾和压力维持了吸烟行为。吸烟者和不吸烟者都确定了戒烟策略。
与青少年的每次互动都是评估吸烟状况的另一个机会。本研究中青少年提出的戒烟计划建议可能比当前与成人策略相关的标准对青少年和年轻人更具吸引力。
