OBJECTIVE: To determine the factors affecting the smoking habits of high school students, their thoughts about changes resulting from anti-smoking laws, and how they are affected by those laws. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, 11th-grade students at eight high schools in Ankara, Turkey, were invited to complete a questionnaire. RESULTS: A total of 1,199 students completed the questionnaire satisfactorily. The mean age of the respondents was 17.0 ± 0.6 years; 56.1% were female, of whom 15.3% were smokers; and 43.9% were male, of whom 43.7% were smokers (p < 0.001). The independent risk factors for smoking were male gender, attending a vocational school, having a sibling who smokes, having a friend who smokes, and poor academic performance. Of the respondents, 74.7% were aware of the content of anti-smoking laws; 81.8% approved of the restrictions and fines; and 8.1% had quit smoking because of those laws. According to the respondents, the interventions that were most effective were the (television) broadcast of films about the hazards of smoking and the ban on cigarette sales to minors. The prevalence of smoking was highest (31.5%) among students attending vocational high schools but lowest (7.5%) among those attending medical vocational high schools. Although 57.1% of the smokers were aware of the existence of a smoking cessation helpline, only 3.7% had called, none of whom had made any attempt to quit smoking. CONCLUSIONS: Although most of the students evaluated were aware of the harmful effects of smoking and approved of the anti-smoking laws, only a minority of those who smoked sought professional help to quit.

Bu çalışmada sağlık çalışanları ile hastaların tütün ürünlerine ilişkin görüşlerinin değerlendirilmesi ve bu görüşlerin karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel olarak hazırlanan çalışmanın örneklemini bir devlet hastanesinin 124 sağlık çalışanı ile bu hastanede tedavi gören 276 hasta oluşturmaktadır. Veriler sosyo-demografik bilgileri içeren bilgi formu ve tütün kullanımına ilişkin soruların yer aldığı anket formu ile yüz yüze toplanmıştır. Çalışmanın veri analizinde SPSS 25 paket programı kullanılmıştır. Sağlık çalışanlarının %33,1’inin her gün sürekli sigara kullandığı, hastaların ise %45,7’sinin hiç sigara kullanmadığı belirlenmiştir. Sigara içme / içmeme açısından toplum için rol model olma durumu incelendiğinde sağlık çalışanlarının %52,4’ü “evet” cevabını verirken, hastaların %50,4’ü “hayır” cevabını vermiştir. Türkiye’de uygulanan kapalı alanlarda sigara içme yasağının devamı konusunda ise sağlık çalışanlarının %66,9’u, hastaların ise %72,5’i “yasak aynen devam etmeli” cevabını vermiştir. Çalışma sonucuna göre erkeklerin kadınlara oranla; sağlık çalışanlarının da hastalara oranla daha fazla tütün ürünü kullandığı ifade edilebilir. Sağlık çalışanları başta olmak üzere toplumun tütün ürünlerinin zararları konusunda bilinçlendirme eğitimleri, sigara bırakma teşvik programları, kamu spotları artırılmalıdır.
