BACKGROUND
This study explores the differences among smokers of waterpipe tobacco in a college population to better inform campaigns to curb waterpipe use.
METHODS
Participants included undergraduate and graduate students attending a liberal arts university in Florida. E-mail-based, cross-sectional surveys were collected in 2 sequential years.
RESULTS
The majority of respondents (64%) reported having ever smoked a hookah, even if just 1-2 puffs. Of those who had ever smoked a hookah, 34% reported smoking a hookah within the previous 30 d. Constructs from the theory of reasoned action were all correlated with smoking behavior. The range of beliefs endorsed by smokers were more strongly associated with hookah-related attitudes compared with subjective norms. Concerns about health were stronger among never-smokers.
CONCLUSIONS
Young adult college students continue to engage in waterpipe tobacco smoking at high rates. Campaigns need to focus on subsets of smokers and nonsmokers, independently.
背景
本研究探讨了大学人群中水烟吸食者之间的差异，以便为遏制水烟使用的宣传活动提供更充分的信息。
方法
参与者包括就读于佛罗里达州一所文科大学的本科生和研究生。连续两年收集基于电子邮件的横断面调查数据。
结果
大多数受访者（64%）报告称曾经吸食过水烟，哪怕只吸了1至2口。在曾经吸食过水烟的人群中，34%报告在过去30天内吸食过水烟。理性行动理论中的各个构念均与吸烟行为相关。与主观规范相比，吸烟者认可的信念范围与水烟相关态度的关联更为紧密。从不吸烟者对健康的担忧更为强烈。
结论
年轻的大学生继续以较高比例吸食水烟。宣传活动需要分别关注吸烟者和不吸烟者的不同群体。
