The purpose of this study was to examine college students' smoking behavior as well as their current smoking status and its effects on perceived levels of stress and coping styles. Students from four universities completed the Perceived Stress Scale, the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations and a smoking questionnaire. Of the 1330 students who participated in the study, 19 percent were current smokers. On the Perceived Stress Scale, current smokers' mean score was significantly higher than that of the students who had never smoked. In addition, the current smokers' mean score for Emotion-oriented Coping was significantly higher than that of the students who had never smoked or formerly smoked. The former smokers' mean score on Avoidance-oriented Coping was significantly lower than the never and the current smokers. Ten percent of the students smoked their first cigarette after high school, while 11 percent started to smoke on a daily basis after high school. Based on the findings, programs that focus on smoking prevention and cessation for college students are recommended.
本研究的目的是调查大学生的吸烟行为、当前吸烟状况及其对感知压力水平和应对方式的影响。来自四所大学的学生完成了感知压力量表、应激情境应对量表和一份吸烟调查问卷。在参与研究的1330名学生中,19%为当前吸烟者。在感知压力量表上,当前吸烟者的平均得分显著高于从未吸烟的学生。此外,当前吸烟者在情绪导向应对方面的平均得分显著高于从未吸烟或曾经吸烟的学生。曾经吸烟者在回避导向应对方面的平均得分显著低于从未吸烟和当前吸烟的学生。10%的学生在高中毕业后吸了第一支烟,而11%的学生在高中毕业后开始每天吸烟。基于这些发现,建议开展针对大学生的吸烟预防和戒烟项目。
