The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of cigarette smoking and to explore its relationship with individual, family, school, and psychological factors among Korean adolescents. As part of the Korean Institute for Health and Social Affairs' Adolescent Health Survey, 5,209 eighth graders and 4,677 eleventh graders from 70 junior and senior high schools completed a self-administered questionnaire during school hours in 1989. Current prevalence of cigarette smoking was 8.45% (15.43% of boys and 1.28% of girls). Smoking prevalence increased with age among boys. Based on logistic regression analyses, perceived peer use was most strongly associated with smoking status (OR = 9.97 for boys; and 68.27 for girls). Academic stress, grade, and type of school were also associated with smoking status for both boys and girls. In addition, mother's smoking, birth order, and urbanity were associated with smoking status for boys. Implications of the results for prevention efforts to inhibit the onset of cigarette smoking among Korean adolescents are discussed.
本研究的目的是调查韩国青少年吸烟的流行情况，并探讨其与个人、家庭、学校及心理因素之间的关系。作为韩国卫生和社会事务研究所青少年健康调查的一部分，1989年，来自70所初高中的5209名八年级学生和4677名十一年级学生在上课时间完成了一份自填式问卷。当前吸烟率为8.45%（男生为15.43%，女生为1.28%）。男生的吸烟率随年龄增长而上升。基于逻辑回归分析，同伴吸烟认知与吸烟状况关联最为紧密（男生的比值比为9.97；女生为68.27）。学业压力、年级和学校类型也与男生和女生的吸烟状况有关。此外，母亲吸烟、出生顺序和城市化程度与男生的吸烟状况有关。文中讨论了这些结果对韩国青少年预防吸烟起始的预防工作的启示。
