We aimed to study the prevalence of smoking in a popular German television crime series ("A case for two"), which has been internationally distributed in 59 countries, over a 20 year period.
A content analysis of five randomly selected episodes per year of one crime series for the period 1985 to 2004 (100 episodes in total) was conducted. Smoking status of all major and minor series characters was assessed. Each episode was coded regarding one or more smoking occurrences, defined as active smoking or handling with tobacco products by a character.
97% of the episodes portrayed tobacco use with a median of 5 occurrences per episode. The series contained 1013 major and minor characters; the overall smoking prevalence was 17.1%. A downward trend in smoking occurrences and prevalence of major and minor characters who smoke from 1985 was followed by an increase in the last decade.
Tobacco use is frequently portrayed in a popular prime-time German crime series, following a U curve over a 20 year period.
我们旨在研究一部广受欢迎的德国电视犯罪系列剧（《搭档》）在20年期间的吸烟流行情况，该剧已在59个国家进行了国际发行。
对1985年至2004年期间每年随机选取的该犯罪系列剧的五集进行内容分析（共100集）。评估了该系列剧中所有主要和次要角色的吸烟状况。每一集都根据一个或多个吸烟场景进行编码，吸烟场景定义为角色主动吸烟或接触烟草制品。
97%的剧集描绘了烟草使用，每集的吸烟场景中位数为5次。该系列剧包含1013个主要和次要角色；总体吸烟流行率为17.1%。从1985年起，吸烟场景以及吸烟的主要和次要角色的流行率呈下降趋势，随后在过去十年中有所上升。
在一部广受欢迎的德国黄金时段犯罪系列剧中，烟草使用的场景频繁出现，在20年期间呈U形曲线。
