Background: Use of tobacco is 2nd major cause of death in the world. The use of tobacco will be responsible for 10 million deaths per year by 2020-2030, mainly in China and India. India rank 4th in total tobacco consumption in the world. The prevention of tobacco use in young Indians appears as the single greatest opportunity for preventing non-communicable disease. The objective was to study knowledge, attitude and practice of tobacco consumption among male college students of rural area of PuneMethods: Present cross-sectional study conducted among male college students of rural field practice area of a medical college during September to October 2015. The students were interviewed with prestructured questionnaire and investigator had explained all the details. The data was tabulated and analyzed using MS excel and SPSS.Results: Total 207 male college students with mean age 18.6±1.2 years were enrolled. 162 (78.3%) students have good knowledge of tobacco consumption effects whereas 191 (92.3%) have favorable attitude towards tobacco consumption. Among study subjects, 26 (12.6%) were consuming tobacco in one and or the other form. Out of these, 15 (57.7%) were smokers. Mean age of initiation of tobacco consumption was 16.9±1.9 years. The knowledge (p=0.034) and attitude (p=0.007) were significantly associated with education of students. The gap between knowledge and practice was also significant (p=0.01).Conclusions: The study suggests though the knowledge of students toward tobacco consumption is adequate, tobacco consumption habit is higher in students. This gap can be reduced by proper counseling of the students.

“…Presumably, this possible effect of parents on adolescents' friendships might reflect direct influences of the parental smoking-specific communication, but also indirect influences, by which parents affect peer affiliation through the adolescents' behavior: Adolescents who do not smoke themselves, are more likely to select friends who also do not smoke. Investigating the impact of parents on adolescents' friendships is important as previous research showed that imitation plays a major role in smoking ) and that the risk for smoking increased dramatically as the number of smoking models in the adolescent's environment increased (Taylor et al 2004). When parents are able to prevent their child from affiliating with smoking friends, they take away an important source of smoking modeling and, accordingly, decrease the likelihood that their child will smoke in the future.…”

In this study, we investigated whether parental smoking-specific communication is related to adolescents' friendship-selection processes. Furthermore, we investigated whether adolescents and their best friends influence each other over time, and what role parents play in this process. In the present study we used data from the Family and Health project in which at baseline 428 full families participated. In this 2-year, three-wave longitudinal study data were available from fathers, mothers, early adolescents (aged M = 13.4 years, SD = .50), and middle adolescents (aged M = 15.2 years, SD = .60). The majority of the participating adolescents were of Dutch origin ([95%). There was an almost equal distribution of boys and girls, and adolescents with lower, middle, and higher educational levels were equally represented. Analyses were conducted by means of Structural Equation Modeling. Results demonstrate that a high quality of the smoking-specific communication is related to a lower likelihood of adolescent smoking, whereas the frequency is positively associated with adolescent smoking. Both the quality and frequency of parental smoking-specific communication were related to adolescents' selective affiliation with (non-)smoking friends. The findings suggest that parental smoking-specific communication is associated with adolescent smoking directly but also indirectly by influencing the friends the adolescents will associate with.
