Background: This study investigated associated factors of heavy smoking in one-person and multi-person households.
Methods: The study participants comprised 7,984 adults aged 19 years and older who were current smokers and participated in the 5th?7th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. General linear analysis and multinomial logistic regression analysis were performed to estimate associated factors for heavy smoking in single and multi-person households.
Results: Multinomial logistic regression analysis showed that the age, gender, educational level, marriage status, age of starting smoking, and smoking period were associated with heavy smoking in single-person households. Meanwhile, in multi-person households, age, gender, education level, marriage status, job, regular exercise, obesity, depression, stress, alcohol drinking, age of starting smoking, and smoking period were associated with heavy smoking.
Conclusion: Single-person households had a higher risk of heavy smoking than multi-person households. In both single-person and multi-person households, those aged in their 40s, males, spouses, those who started smoking before the age of 19 years, and those with a longer smoking period were at a higher risk of heavy smoking. Regarding multi-person households, those aged in their 30s?60s; white-collar workers; engaged in regular exercise; and experiencing obesity, depression, and stress were at a higher risk of heavy smoking. Therefore, it is necessary to consider household type in smoking prevention and cessation policies.
