摘要

OBJECTIVE—To compare the rates and predictors of smoking uptake between adolescents speaking English and those speaking a language other than English (LOTE) at home.
DESIGN—A cross-sectional survey of year 7 and 8 students (aged 12 and 13 years) was conducted in 1994 and repeated 12 months later. A cohort of students was identified with respondents at baseline matched at follow up. χ2 and logistic regression were used for analysis.
SETTING—38 schools in southern, east, and northern Sydney, Australia.
SUBJECTS—Year 7 and 8 students in the schools were included and examined on two occasions, with complete data for 5947 (80%) students at baseline and 6177 (98%) students at a 12-month follow up. Records were able to be matched perfectly for 3513 respondents (59%).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES—Smoking rates and predictors of smoking uptake among students speaking English or a LOTE at home.
RESULTS—At baseline, 6.1% of students surveyed were smokers. Twelve months later, 15.8% of student surveyed were smokers. There were significantly lower smoking rates among students speaking a LOTE at home compared with those speaking English at home at baseline and at 12 months. Using matched data, for students speaking English at home, five variables were significant predictors of smoking uptake: thinking it acceptable to smoke, perceived benefits of smoking, and having a brother, sister, or close friend who smokes. For students speaking a LOTE, the only predictor was the smoking status of close friends.
CONCLUSIONS—Despite the higher smoking prevalence among men with a non-English-speaking background, and the reported strong association between fathers' smoking status and smoking onset of their children, adolescents speaking a LOTE at home were significantly less likely to be smokers than their English-speaking counterparts. Thus, there would seem to be a delay of smoking onset among students speaking a LOTE at home. The smoking rates among respondents speaking a LOTE at home in this study are lower than those obtained from the studies conducted in Europe and the United States. Effective smoking prevention interventions need to be implemented at an early stage of adolescence.

设计-对7年级和8年级学生(12岁和12岁以下)的横断面调查13年)于1994年进行,并在12个月后重复进行。确定了一组学生,基线时的受访者与随访相符。 χ 2 和logistic回归分析。
设置-澳大利亚南部,东部和北部悉尼的38所学校。
主题-七年级和八年级的学生包括两次并进行了检查,在基线期的12个月中,有5947(80%)名学生的完整数据和6177(98%)名学生的完整数据。记录能够与3513位受访者(59%)完美匹配。
主要指标-吸烟率和在家讲英语或轻度英语的学生中吸烟率的预测指标。
结果-基线时为6.1接受调查的学生中有%是吸烟者。十二个月后,接受调查的学生中有15.8%是吸烟者。与基线和12个月在家讲英语的学生相比,在家讲LOTE的学生吸烟率要低得多。使用匹配的数据,对于在家讲英语的学生来说,五个变量是吸烟吸收的重要预测指标:认为吸烟可以接受,吸烟带来的好处以及有一个兄弟,姐妹或密友吸烟。对于说口语的学生,唯一的预测因素是密友的吸烟状况。
结论—尽管非英语背景的男性吸烟率较高,而且据报道父亲的吸烟状况与与孩子说英语的青少年相比,在孩子中抽烟的青少年在家里说“ LOTE”的青少年吸烟的可能性要低得多。因此,在家讲“乐天”的学生中吸烟似乎会延迟。在这项研究中,在家中讲“ LOTE”的受访者的吸烟率低于在欧洲和美国进行的研究中得出的吸烟率。
