This study examines the influence of the social environment in worksites on employees' intention to quit smoking by applying the attitude-social influence-efficacy model.
Regression analyses were conducted with 509 smoking employees from eight Dutch worksites. Variables of interest were attitudes toward smoking, perceived social pressure to quit, perceived smoking behavior of others, self-efficacy, demographics, smoking history variables, company type, and smoking tolerance.
Attitude, social pressure from people out-side the worksetting (partner, children), and self-efficacy explained 23% of the variance for intention. Past behavior increased the adjusted R2 from 0.23 to 0.29. Social influences in the worksite were unrelated to employees' intention to quit smoking.
It was concluded that, in Dutch work-sites, social influences stemming from people at work have less influence on employees' intention to quit smoking than other important people outside the work situation. Implications for smoking control strategies in worksites are briefly discussed.
本研究通过应用态度 - 社会影响 - 效能模型，考察工作场所的社会环境对员工戒烟意愿的影响。
对来自荷兰八个工作场所的509名吸烟员工进行了回归分析。感兴趣的变量包括对吸烟的态度、感知到的戒烟社会压力、对他人吸烟行为的感知、自我效能、人口统计学特征、吸烟史变量、公司类型和吸烟容忍度。
态度、工作场所之外的人（伴侣、孩子）带来的社会压力以及自我效能解释了戒烟意愿变异的23%。过去的行为使调整后的R²从0.23提高到0.29。工作场所的社会影响与员工的戒烟意愿无关。
得出的结论是，在荷兰的工作场所，来自同事的社会影响对员工戒烟意愿的影响小于工作场所之外其他重要人物的影响。文中简要讨论了对工作场所吸烟控制策略的启示。
