目的：确定大学生中积极和消极态度与水烟吸烟 (HTS) 之间的关联。方法：在随机抽取的大学生样本 (N = 852) 中，使用多变量逻辑回归模型评估对 HTS 积极和消极态度之间的关联。结果：当前积极态度与调整后的赔率 4.32 (95% CI = 3.20, 5.82) 相关。 HTS，而消极态度与当前吸烟 HTS 的较低调整赔率相关（AOR = 0.64，95% CI = 0.53，0.76）。积极态度还与非 HTS 用户未来使用水烟的意愿的调整赔率 9.31 (95% CI = 6.77, 12.80) 相关。结论：与消极态度相比，对 HTS 的积极态度与 HTS 的相关性更强。对于未来的研究和干预来说，关注减少对 HTS 的积极态度可能特别有价值。
OBJECTIVE: To determine associations between positive and negative attitudes and hookah tobacco smoking (HTS) among college students.METHODS: Among a random sample of university students (N = 852), multivariable logistic regression models assessed associations between positive and negative attitudes toward HTS.RESULTS: Positive attitudes were associated with adjusted odds of 4.32 (95% CI = 3.20, 5.82) for current HTS, whereas negative attitudes were associated with lower adjusted odds for current smoking HTS (AOR = 0.64, 95% CI = 0.53, 0.76). Positive attitudes were also associated with adjusted odds of 9.31 (95% CI = 6.77, 12.80) for intention for future hookah use among non-HTS users.CONCLUSION: Positive attitudes toward HTS were more strongly associated with HTS compared to negative attitudes. It may be particularly valuable for future research and interventions to focus on decreasing positive attitudes toward HTS.
