Tobacco smoking is the most serious health and social problem. Most of the elderly smokers start smoking at age of 13 to 15 years. The aim of the thesis was to survey the tobacco smoking and the knowledge about the harmfulness of the tobacco smoking among the young people. The investigated material is the 365 persons' group of boys and girls from the 13 schools in the administrative district of Sokółka, who took part in the antinicotine educational program. The questionnaire was used before the program was started. Even though the investigated people evaluated their knowledge about the harmfulness of tobacco smoking very well, they still attempt this risky behavior. More often the young people smoke in order to impress their friends. 18% boys and girls attempted smoking in the primary schools and 35% in the high schools. The survey shows that every third pupil in the primary schools recived the proposal of smoking. Among the investigated people the proportion of smokers is lower as compared to the others of the similar age group in Poland in 1998. Experimenting on smoking is dangerous as the proportion of smokers is rising with their age. It is necessary to introduce the prophylactic actions in every type of school. The programs should be concentrated on preventing the youth from the risky addictions and reducing the risky factors.
吸烟是最严重的健康和社会问题。大多数老年吸烟者在13至15岁开始吸烟。本论文的目的是调查青少年中的吸烟情况以及他们对吸烟危害的认知。调查对象是索科尔卡行政区13所学校的365名男生和女生，他们参加了反尼古丁教育项目。在项目开始前使用了调查问卷。尽管被调查者对自己关于吸烟危害的知识评价很高，但他们仍然尝试这种危险行为。年轻人吸烟更多是为了给朋友留下深刻印象。18%的小学男生和女生尝试过吸烟，高中阶段这一比例为35%。调查显示，每三个小学生中就有一个收到过吸烟的提议。在被调查者中，吸烟者的比例低于1998年波兰同年龄段的其他人。尝试吸烟是危险的，因为吸烟者的比例会随着年龄增长而上升。有必要在各类学校开展预防行动。这些项目应集中于防止年轻人染上危险的成瘾行为并减少危险因素。
