A self-report survey of cigarette use among 10th- and 12th-grade Mexican American students found no differences in rates of use by migrant status. Male students reported higher levels of lifetime, experimental, and daily smoking than female students, and 12th-grade students reported higher levels of daily smoking than 10th-grade students. A socialization model of cigarette use based on peer cluster theory was evaluated using structural equation methods, examining the effects of family strength, family tobacco use, school adjustment, religious identification, and peer tobacco associations. The basic latent-structure socialization model was supported in all groups, but final models including specific effects identified both unique and common relationships by gender and migrant status. Common patterns across groups suggest that completely different prevention programs may not be necessary for these youth. However, program elements based on subtle group differences may serve to tailor prevention efforts and make them more effective.
一项针对十年级和十二年级墨西哥裔美国学生吸烟情况的自我报告调查发现，吸烟率在移民身份方面没有差异。男生报告的终生吸烟、尝试吸烟和每日吸烟水平高于女生，十二年级学生报告的每日吸烟水平高于十年级学生。基于同伴群体理论的吸烟社会化模型使用结构方程方法进行了评估，考察了家庭凝聚力、家庭吸烟情况、学校适应、宗教认同和同伴吸烟关联的影响。基本的潜在结构社会化模型在所有群体中都得到了支持，但包含特定影响的最终模型通过性别和移民身份确定了独特和共同的关系。各群体的共同模式表明，可能无需为这些青少年制定完全不同的预防计划。然而，基于细微群体差异的计划要素可能有助于调整预防措施并使其更有效。
