From a stratified, random sampling of Southeastern, nonurban high schools, survey data on smokeless tobacco use and potential psychosocial risk factors were obtained from 5683 adolescent females. Of the 15.3% who reported trying smokeless tobacco, most (75%) reported only experimental use. Factor analysis of the psychosocial items resulted in four factors: perceived negative consequences, substance use, modeling, and active lifestyle. Discriminant analysis on use indicated that modeling influences and use of other substances were the strongest predictors of initial smokeless tobacco use. Level of use, however, was most strongly associated with lower perceived negative consequences for use and the use of other substances. Separate analyses on American Indian, Black, and White subgroups suggested that factors associated with initial use were similar but that substantial differences exist between subgroups on risk factors for level of smokeless tobacco use.
从东南部非城市高中的分层随机抽样中，收集了5683名青春期女性关于无烟烟草使用及潜在心理社会风险因素的调查数据。在报告尝试过无烟烟草的15.3%的人中，大多数（75%）称只是尝试性使用。对心理社会项目的因子分析产生了四个因子：感知到的负面后果、物质使用、模仿和积极的生活方式。对使用情况的判别分析表明，模仿影响和其他物质的使用是最初无烟烟草使用的最强预测因素。然而，使用水平与对使用的较低感知负面后果以及其他物质的使用最密切相关。对美洲印第安人、黑人和白人亚组的单独分析表明，与最初使用相关的因素相似，但在无烟烟草使用水平的风险因素方面，亚组之间存在显著差异。
