To assess attitudes towards the extension of outdoor smoke-free areas on university campuses.
Cross-sectional study (n=384) conducted using a questionnaire administered to medical and nursing students in Barcelona in 2014. Information was obtained pertaining to support for indoor and outdoor smoking bans on university campuses, and the importance of acting as role models. Logistic regression analyses were performed to examine agreement.
Most of the students agreed on the importance of health professionals and students as role models (74.9% and 64.1%, respectively) although there were statistically significant differences by smoking status and age. 90% of students reported exposure to smoke on campus. Students expressed strong support for indoor smoke-free policies (97.9%). However, only 39.3% of participants supported regulation of outdoor smoking for university campuses. Non-smokers (OR=12.315; 95% CI: 5.377-28.204) and students ≥22 years old (OR=3.001; 95% CI: 1.439-6.257) were the strongest supporters.
The students supported indoor smoke-free policies for universities. However, support for extending smoke-free regulations to outdoor areas of university campuses was limited. It is necessary to educate students about tobacco control and emphasise their importance as role models before extending outdoor smoke-free legislation at university campuses.
评估对大学校园户外无烟区域扩展的态度。
2014年在巴塞罗那对医学和护理专业学生进行问卷调查的横断面研究(n = 384)。获取了有关支持大学校园室内和室外禁烟以及作为榜样的重要性的信息。进行逻辑回归分析以检验一致性。
大多数学生认同健康专业人员和学生作为榜样的重要性(分别为74.9%和64.1%),尽管按吸烟状况和年龄存在统计学显著差异。90%的学生报告在校园接触过烟雾。学生对室内无烟政策表示强烈支持(97.9%)。然而,只有39.3%的参与者支持对大学校园户外吸烟进行管制。非吸烟者(OR = 12.315;95%可信区间:5.377 - 28.204)和22岁及以上学生(OR = 3.001;95%可信区间:1.439 - 6.257)是最强烈的支持者。
学生支持大学的室内无烟政策。然而,将无烟规定扩展到大学校园户外区域的支持有限。在大学校园扩展户外无烟立法之前,有必要对学生进行烟草控制教育并强调他们作为榜样的重要性。
