A questionnaire relating to smoking behavior was developed and administered to 3,786 college students who were attending introductory personal health classes at selected colleges in the state of Oregon during the 1963-64 school year. Analysis of the data was not completed until 1987 (twenty-three years later) at which time the data cards were discovered in storage. During the 1986-87 school year a modified questionnaire was developed and administered to 863 college students attending introductory personal health classes at three of the same four universities that were utilized in the 1963-64 study. The study addressed the smoking behavior of an often neglected population of older adolescents and younger adults over a time period of twenty-three years. Stepwise logistic regression equations were used to determine the set of variables that best accounted for smoking status in 1963-64 and 1986-87. Results indicated that the variables that increased the probability of an individual smoking in 1963-64 did not increase the probability of an individual smoking in 1986-87. The characteristics and behaviors of family members have significantly less influence on the smoking behavior of adolescents and young adults today when compared to adolescents and young adults in 1963-64.
一份与吸烟行为相关的调查问卷被设计出来，并发放给了3786名大学生，这些学生在1963 - 64学年期间，于俄勒冈州选定的大学参加基础个人健康课程。直到1987年（二十三年后）数据卡片在仓库中被发现时，数据分析才完成。在1986 - 87学年，一份经过修改的调查问卷被设计出来，并发放给了863名大学生，他们在1963 - 64年研究中所使用的四所大学中的三所参加基础个人健康课程。该研究关注了一个长期被忽视的年龄稍大的青少年和年轻成年人群体在二十三年间的吸烟行为。逐步逻辑回归方程被用来确定在1963 - 64年和1986 - 87年最能解释吸烟状况的变量集。结果表明，那些在1963 - 64年增加个人吸烟可能性的变量，在1986 - 87年并没有增加个人吸烟的可能性。与1963 - 64年的青少年和年轻成年人相比，家庭成员的特征和行为如今对青少年和年轻成年人吸烟行为的影响要小得多。
