This study reports daily smoking rates among older adolescents obtained by a unique follow-up of a cohort originally identified in the seventh grade. Those no longer in their original school districts were located and interviewed by telephone. Smoking rates among dropouts exceeded 70 per cent in all age-sex groups. Smoking rates among transfers were as high as those among absentees. Including these subgroups raised smoking prevalence rates among older adolescents substantially.
本研究报告了通过对最初在七年级时确定的队列进行独特随访得出的大龄青少年每日吸烟率。那些不再在其原学区的学生通过电话找到并接受了访谈。所有年龄性别组中辍学者的吸烟率超过70%。转学学生的吸烟率与缺勤学生的吸烟率一样高。将这些亚组纳入后，大龄青少年中的吸烟流行率大幅提高。
