Smoking bans in public places have been shown to have an impact on smoking habits, however the potential influence of a university smoking ban on faculty and staff smoking habits remains elusive.
This cross sectional study was implemented in Nayoro City, Japan in 2011, among the faculty and students of the Nayoro City University. Five years after the declaration of a total ban on smoking on a university campus, the smoking characteristics of all students, teachers and office workers, and the policy's impact on smokers were investigated. The survey was conducted through an anonymous, self-administered, multiple-choice questionnaire. Information was gathered on the characteristics and smoking characteristics of respondents, and the smokers attitudes toward smoking.
The recovery rate was 62.1%. Among respondents, smoking prevalence was 17.9% in teachers and office workers, and 4.0% in students. Among all smokers, 46.4% did not abstain from smoking while at the university and they indicated their smoking areas were "on the streets next to the campus": 16 and "outdoors on campus": 3, respectively. As for smokers, 29.6% of them reduced the number of cigarettes smoked per day as a result of the smoking ban. None of the ex-smokers replied that their principal motivation for quitting smoking was the smoking ban.
The ban on smoking served a motivator for smokers to reduce in smoking, but not serve as an effective motivator to quit smoking.
公共场所禁烟已被证明会对吸烟习惯产生影响，然而大学禁烟对教职员工吸烟习惯的潜在影响仍不明确。
2011年在日本钏路市对钏路市立大学的教职员工和学生开展了这项横断面研究。在宣布大学校园全面禁烟五年后，调查了所有学生、教师和办公人员的吸烟特征以及该政策对吸烟者的影响。通过匿名的自填式多项选择题问卷进行调查。收集了受访者的特征和吸烟特征，以及吸烟者对吸烟的态度。
回收率为62.1%。在受访者中，教师和办公人员的吸烟率为17.9%，学生为4.0%。在所有吸烟者中，46.4%在大学期间并未戒烟，他们表示吸烟地点分别是“校园旁街道”（16人）和“校园户外”（3人）。对于吸烟者而言，29.6%的人因禁烟而减少了每日吸烟量。没有已戒烟者表示他们戒烟的主要动机是禁烟。
禁烟促使吸烟者减少吸烟，但并非促使其戒烟的有效动因。
