Parents influence their child's conduct and adolescence hostility either directly or indirectly. Similarly children can acquire a particular behaviour by observing and intentionally imitating their parents in order to simply copy them without understanding the positive or negative outcome.
To assess and compare the association between parental tobacco usage and parental bonding with participants tobacco usage habits.
A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 130 adults. Information pertaining to demographics, parental bonding (using parental bonding index) and behavioural habits (e.g., smoking, alcohol) of both participants and their parents was collected with the use of a questionnaire-based interview. Tobacco usage was measured as categorical variable as ever chewer and never chewer. Chi-square test, independent sample t-test, multinomial logistic regression and rotated factor loadings was used to analyse the data.
Majority of the participants were males with a mean age of 30.4±8.5 years. Tobacco use was prevalent among less educated males. Parental smokeless tobacco use, paternal alcohol and maternal paan chewing was significantly associated with participants adverse habits. Multinomial logistic regression showed a significant association between parental and participant's tobacco usage. Perceived parental bonding were also significantly associated with participant's tobacco usage habit.
Parental bonding measures and tobacco usage was significantly associated with the participant's tobacco use. Hence, interventional and educational efforts to weaken intergenerational influences should target parents. In addition to parents, the smoking behaviour of adults should also be targeted for prevention efforts.
父母直接或间接地影响孩子的行为和青春期的敌意。同样，孩子可以通过观察并有意模仿父母来习得某种特定行为，只是单纯地模仿而不理解其正面或负面结果。
评估并比较父母吸烟与父母依恋关系和参与者吸烟习惯之间的关联。
对130名成年人进行了描述性横断面研究。通过基于问卷的访谈收集了参与者及其父母的人口统计学信息、父母依恋关系（使用父母依恋指数）和行为习惯（如吸烟、饮酒）。吸烟情况作为分类变量，分为曾经咀嚼烟草者和从不咀嚼烟草者。使用卡方检验、独立样本t检验、多项逻辑回归和旋转因子负荷来分析数据。
大多数参与者为男性，平均年龄为30.4±8.5岁。吸烟在受教育程度较低的男性中更为普遍。父母使用无烟烟草、父亲饮酒和母亲嚼槟榔与参与者的不良习惯显著相关。多项逻辑回归显示父母与参与者的吸烟情况之间存在显著关联。感知到的父母依恋关系也与参与者的吸烟习惯显著相关。
父母依恋测量指标和吸烟情况与参与者的吸烟行为显著相关。因此，为削弱代际影响而进行的干预和教育努力应以父母为目标。除父母外，成年人的吸烟行为也应作为预防工作的目标。
