This study examined the smoking related behaviors of Hispanic young adult college students as part of a larger study that assessed characteristics of Hispanic smokers in a metropolitan area on the U.S./México border. One hundred seventy-four English-speaking Hispanic college students completed questionnaires that assessed tobacco use, drug/alcohol use, body mass index, weight concerns, acculturation, depressive symptoms, and expired carbon monoxide level. Of the 74 smoking participants (42.5% of the sample), 77% reported light or intermittent smoking. Univariate analyses and a backward elimination logistic regression model were used to compare smokers' and nonsmokers' characteristics. Significant univariate differences between smokers and nonsmokers were higher reported weekly alcohol use and ever use of marijuana. Logistic regression findings indicated smokers reported heightened odds of being younger, lower acculturation, ever use of drugs, and weekly drinking. These results suggest a drug and alcohol use component is important to cessation interventions targeted toward Hispanic college student smokers.
本研究调查了西班牙裔年轻成年大学生的吸烟相关行为，这是一项更大规模研究的一部分，该研究评估了美国/墨西哥边境大都市地区西班牙裔吸烟者的特征。174 名讲英语的西班牙裔大学生完成了问卷，评估了烟草使用、药物/酒精使用、体重指数、体重担忧、文化适应、抑郁症状和呼出的一氧化碳水平。在 74 名吸烟参与者中（占样本的 42.5%），77%报告轻度或间歇性吸烟。使用单变量分析和向后消除逻辑回归模型比较了吸烟者和非吸烟者的特征。吸烟者和非吸烟者之间存在显著的单变量差异，包括每周饮酒量较高和曾经使用过大麻。逻辑回归结果表明，吸烟者报告的年轻、较低的文化适应、曾经使用药物和每周饮酒的可能性更高。这些结果表明，针对西班牙裔大学生吸烟者的戒烟干预措施中，药物和酒精使用因素很重要。
