Objectives: This study aimed to provide foundational data for preventing adolescents smoking by analyzing the relationship between adolescents' lifestyles and smoking experiences and identifying influencing factors. Methods: Secondary data analysis was conducted using the 17th (2021) Youth Health Behavior Survey data, encompassing 54,848 students from 796 schools. Variables included general characteristics, smoking status, lifestyle habits, physical activity, sleep patterns, and stress perception. Frequency analysis was used to examine general characteristics, while further analysis employed frequency analysis and the Pearson Chi-square test to compare lifestyle differences based on smoking presence. Multinomial logistic regression analysis was employed to determine factors influencing smoking experience, with IBM SPSS Statistics 28 used for all analyses at a significance level of p<.05. Results: Analysis revealed with general characteristics that the group with smoking experience exhibited a higher proportion of male students (67.4%) compared to the non-smoking group (50.1%) (p<.001). Analysis revealed that the smoking group was more likely to skip breakfast (27.7%), not consume fruit (17.8%), and consume fast food more than three times daily (0.9%). Furthermore, a higher percentage of smokers engaged in 60 minutes or more of breathless physical activity (8.4%) seven times a week, reported insufficient fatigue recovery through sleep (21.6%), and experienced very severe normal stress (17.2%) (p<.001). Analysis of the relationship between lifestyle and smoking indicated increased likelihood of smoking with zero breakfast consumption (OR=1.759, p<.001) and increased fruit consumption (OR=1.921, p<.001), while zero fast food consumption decreased smoking likelihood (OR=0.206, p<.001). Adequate sleep-related fatigue recovery reduced smoking likelihood (OR=0.458, p<.001), whereas increased stress elevated it (OR=1.260, p<.05). Conclusion: Adolescents' lifestyle habits significantly correlated with their smoking experiences, highlighting the necessity of considering lifestyle factors in smoking prevention strategies. This study provides crucial insights for promoting healthy lifestyle changes to prevent smoking among youth.

1950년대 이후 구미 각국에서 수집된 대부분의 독성학적, 역학적 연구조사자료에 따르면 흡연과 관련한 발병률 및 사망률의 주요 원인이 흡연 당사자의 직접흡연에 의한 것으로 보고되어 왔다. .그러나 최근 들어 담배연기에 대한 비흡연자의 비자의적인 노출 즉, 환경담배연기(Environmental Tobacco Smoke, 이하 ETS)로 인한 보건학적 위해성에 대한 논란이 제기되면서 간접흡연은 새로운 사회문제로 대두되고 있다(Repace, 1980; Surgeon General, 1986).(중략)

본 연구는 제주지역 일부 초, 중학생들의 간접흡연 실태와 그로 인한 현재 흡연 여부 관계를 분석하여 초, 중학생들의 흡연 예방 교육 계획 및 수립에 기초 자료를 제공하고자 본 연구를 시도하였다. 자료 수집 기간은 2009년 6월 29일부터 7월 11일까지 제주특별자치도내 초등학교 5, 6학년 아동 464명과 중학생 475명을 대상으로 설문지를 이용하여 조사하였다. 연구 대상자들의 간접흡연 노출 관련성은 가정불화, 성적, 친구관계스트레스가 있는 대상자에게서 높게 조사되었고, 가족 및 주변인의 흡연유무에 따른 간접흡연 실태는 부모 및 친구의 흡연으로 간접흡연에 노출되었으며 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 간접흡연의 주제공자는 아버지며, 주 간접흡연 피해 장소는 집으로 나타났다. 간접흡연 노출 유무를 종속변수로 한 로지스틱 회귀분석 결과는 흡연하는 아버지를 둔 대상자가 그렇지 않은 대상자에 비해 간접흡연 노출이 높았으며, 흡연하는 친구를 둔 대상자는 그렇지 않은 대상자에 비해 간접흡연 노출이 높게 나타났다. 현재흡연 여부를 종속변수로 한 로지스틱 회귀분석의 결과는 남학생이 여학생에 비해, 중학생이 초등학생에 비해 현재흡연율이 높았고, 엄한 가정 분위기 속에서 생활하고 있는 대상자와 흡연하는 친구를 둔 대상자는 그렇지 않은 대상자에 비해 현재흡연율이 높았으며, 간접흡연에 노출 되었던 대상자에게서 현재흡연율이 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 초, 중학생의 간접흡연 실태는 심각한 사회문제이다. 또한 대상자들의 현재 흡연은 간접흡연 노출과 관련이 있는 것으로 볼 수 있었다. 이러한 간접흡연의 노출 및 그로 인한 흡연율을 줄이기 위해서는 가정 및 학교와 공공장소 등에서 간접흡연에 노출되지 않는 제도적 및 환경적인 조치들이 우선되어야 할 것이며, 학생들을 대상으로 간접흡연에 대한 간접흡연 예방 교육 및 대처방안 교육이 조기에 지속적으로 실시되어야 하겠다. 또한 유치원에서부터 고등학교에 이르기까지 모든 학생들에게 필수적으로 흡연예방 교육을 수강하게 하고, 교사들을 위한 연수교육 실시, 학교 흡연예방사업에 부모나 가족을 참여, 흡연예방 사업의 정기적인 평가 실시 등 국가적인 정책이 동반되어야 할 것이다.

The purpose of the study was to explore the smoking and non-smoking experiences of male adolescents in high school. Data were collected through focus group interviews with 16 participants. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data. Six themes emerged as a result of the analysis. "Imitating adults with curiosity" delineates first smoking experiences of participants. "Repulsion of cigarettes after first smoking" describes changes in participants' attitude toward smoking after first experience and "Resumed smoking" illustrates re-smoking process to be a peer group and test the taste of cigarettes. "Environmental risks of adolescents smoking" depicts adolescents easily exposed to cigarettes. "Conflicts between smoking and quitting smoking" describes repeated tries to quit smoking and re-smoking processes. Lastly "Reasons of non-smoking for non-smoking adolescents" illustrates the reasons for their non-smoking. Smoking and non-smoking experiences of male high school students' are different from those of female students and adults.

This study intends to figure out the variables affecting the degree of female undergraduates' perceived risk of smoking and utilize them as foundational data for educating them to quit smoking. Thereupon, it conducted a self-administered survey from May 18 till 25 of 2009 to 231 female undergraduates attending S University located in Gyeonggi-do. The study tool contains 19 items of general characteristics and 8 of the degree of perceived risk of smoking. The data collected were analyzed by SPSS program, and the following results were gained. 1. According to the result on the degree of female undergraduates' perceived risk of smoking, the degree was shown high as the average was 4.32 among the perfect score of 5; thus, the degree of perceived risk of smoking was high. 2. In terms of the household economic level, female undergraduates with the lower economic level indicated the higher degree of perceived risk of smoking. There existed significant difference by their economic level (F=7.14, p<.01). 3. In regard of whether the female undergraduate smokes or not, the non-smoker perceives the degree of risk of smoking more highly than the smoker does; there is significant difference by whether they smoke or not (t=-2.43, p<.05). 4. About the number of friends who smoke, female undergraduates with one smoking friend show the highest degree of perceived risk of smoking. Those haying three or more smoking friends indicate the low degree of perceived risk of smoking. There exists significant difference by the number of smoking friends they have (F=3.14, p<.05). 5. According to the degree of perceived risk of smoking by their school life satisfaction, the female undergraduates expressing 'dissatisfaction' show the highest degree of perceived risk of smoking while 'satisfaction' indicates the average level. This was statistically significant difference (F=4.81, p<.01). Therefore, it is thought that it will be necessary to develop programs based on this research which can allow female undergraduates to team the importance of quitting smoking and actively participate in the education for it.
