One third of smokers diagnosed with cancer continue smoking, perhaps due to low perceived cancer-related benefits of cessation. To examine perceived cancer-related benefits of quitting among newly diagnosed cancer patients who smoke and associations with quit intentions, baseline measures from patients (N = 303) enrolled in a randomized controlled trial were analyzed using hierarchical regression models and bootstrapping. Higher perceived cancer-related benefits of quitting were associated with having a smoking-related cancer and less education. Perceived cancer-related benefits of quitting and quit intentions were positively correlated, particularly among patients with smoking-related cancers. For smokers with smoking-related cancers, perceived cancer-related benefits of quitting are correlated with quit intentions.
三分之一被诊断患有癌症的吸烟者仍继续吸烟,这可能是由于他们认为戒烟对癌症的益处较低。为了研究新诊断为癌症且吸烟的患者对戒烟的癌症相关益处的看法及其与戒烟意愿的关联,我们对参加一项随机对照试验的患者(N=303)的基线数据进行了层次回归模型和自举法分析。更高的戒烟对癌症的益处与与吸烟相关的癌症和较低的教育程度有关。对戒烟的癌症相关益处的看法与戒烟意愿呈正相关,尤其是在与吸烟相关的癌症患者中。对于患有与吸烟相关的癌症的吸烟者,对戒烟的癌症相关益处的看法与戒烟意愿相关。
