Background: Adolescence life-style affects adulthood health behaviors. Unhealthy behaviors such as smoking tend to be learned from surrounding people like family members or friends. Also, environmental risk factors for smoking such as secondhand smoke at home or peer smoking would have negative effects on healthy behaviors.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine association among family structure, environmental risk factors and adolescent smoking experiences.
Method: This study used data from the 2018 Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey. We analyzed 60,040 participants. Study variables included family structure, secondhand smoke at home, peer smoking and life time smoking experience. For this study, descriptive analysis, Chi-square test, and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed.
Results: Among boys, family structure (living with both parents reference groug vs. step parents: OR: 1.60, 95% CI: 1.04-2.50), secondhand smoke at home (No reference group vs. Yes: OR: 1.29, 95% CI: 1.19-1.38), and peer smoking (No reference group vs. Yes: OR: 3.60, 95% CI: 3.32-3.80) were associated with lifetime smoking experience. Among girls, family structure (living with both parents reference group vs living without both parents: OR: 1.60, 95% CI: 1.10-2.24), secondhand smoke at home (No reference group vs Yes: OR: 1.28, 95% CI: 1.15-1.42), and peer smoking (No reference group vs Yes: OR: 6.60, 95% CI: 5.87-7.43) were associated with lifetime smoking experience.
Conclusion: Study variables would be a risk factor of adolescent smoking. Health promotion programs should be concerned about these findings.
