To explore women's knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs about adverse outcomes associated with smoking during pregnancy and which outcomes might motivate cessation; to explore reactions to graphic warnings depicting 2 adverse outcomes.
Twelve focus groups were conducted with women of childbearing age who were current smokers.
Participants had low to moderate awareness of many outcomes and believed it was acceptable to smoke in the first trimester before knowledge of pregnancy. Perceived susceptibility to outcomes was low. Motivators included risk-focused information, especially serious risks to the baby (eg, stillbirth, SIDS). Graphic warnings produced strong reactions, especially the warning with a real photo.
Despite barriers to reducing rates of smoking during pregnancy, educational information and photos depicting babies' risks could motivate women to quit.
探讨女性对孕期吸烟相关不良后果的知识、态度和信念,以及哪些后果可能促使她们戒烟;探讨对描绘两种不良后果的警示图片的反应。
对育龄期现吸烟女性进行了12个焦点小组访谈。
参与者对许多后果的知晓程度较低至中等,并且认为在得知怀孕前的孕早期吸烟是可以接受的。对后果的感知易感性较低。促使她们戒烟的因素包括以风险为重点的信息,特别是对婴儿的严重风险(如死产、婴儿猝死综合征)。警示图片引发了强烈反应,尤其是带有真实照片的警示。
尽管在降低孕期吸烟率方面存在障碍,但描绘婴儿风险的教育信息和图片可能会促使女性戒烟。
