This study examined whether interventions aimed at aggressive/disruptive classroom behavior and poor academic achievement would reduce the incidence of initiation of smoking.
An epidemiologically based, universal randomized preventive trial involved 2311 children in 2 classroom-based preventive interventions or controls. Each intervention was directed at 1 of the aforementioned 2 antecedents over first and second grades in 19 urban schools.
Smoking initiation was reduced in both cohorts for boys assigned to the behavioral intervention.
Targeting early risk antecedents such as aggressive behavior appears to be an important smoking prevention strategy.
本研究调查了针对课堂上的攻击性行为/破坏性行为以及学业成绩不佳所采取的干预措施是否会降低开始吸烟的发生率。
一项基于流行病学的普遍性随机预防试验,涉及2311名儿童,他们被分配到两种基于课堂的预防干预措施或对照组中。在19所城市学校的一、二年级中,每种干预措施都针对上述两个前提因素中的一个。
在被分配到行为干预组的男孩中,两个队列的吸烟开始率均有所降低。
针对诸如攻击性行为等早期风险前提因素似乎是一项重要的吸烟预防策略。
