The study reports on the motivations of tobacco consumption in various populations of youths in North-Switzerland. A questionnaire obtained from 1436 school-children in the Cantons of Zurich and St. Gall indicated that 9% of the boys and 3% of the girls have tried their first "curiosity-cigarette" before age 6. Among 400 female students of nursing there were 32% smokers, and one of four was smoking more than 20 cigarettes per day. In boarding schools the smoking habits varied according to pedagogic influences. Boys from farming families originating from East-Switzerland were smoking at a rate of 23% between ages 17-21. Girls of similar origin and age were smoking in 14% of the cases. Apprentices of the same age working in the metal industry of the city of Zurich were smoking in 55%, boys from High Schools in 30% of the cases. There were 17% of abstinents from alcohol among non-smokers as compared to 2% among smokers representing a significant difference. In High School-students from Berne there were 23% of smokers as compared to 3% of non-smokers with previous experience with hard drugs. The results of a Health Education Program conducted during three years as a longterm intervention demonstrated that tobacco consumption was significantly reduced in test groups as compared to controls.
该研究报告了瑞士北部不同青少年群体的烟草消费动机。从苏黎世和圣加仑州的1436名学童那里获得的一份调查问卷显示，9%的男孩和3%的女孩在6岁之前就尝试过第一支“好奇烟”。在400名护理专业女学生中，32%是吸烟者，四分之一的人每天吸烟超过20支。在寄宿学校，吸烟习惯因教学影响而有所不同。来自瑞士东部农业家庭的17至21岁男孩吸烟率为23%。相同出身和年龄的女孩吸烟率为14%。在苏黎世市从事金属行业的同年龄学徒中，吸烟率为55%，高中男生吸烟率为30%。不吸烟者中有17%戒酒，吸烟者中这一比例为2%，两者存在显著差异。在伯尔尼的高中生中，23%是吸烟者，有过吸食硬性毒品经历的非吸烟者占3%。作为长期干预措施进行的为期三年的健康教育项目结果表明，与对照组相比，试验组的烟草消费显著减少。
