最近对预防吸烟计划的评估表明,强调抵制社会影响的课程有相当大的希望。通过解决以往工作中的主要方法局限性,这些评价得到了扩展。22所匹配的学校被随机分为实验组和对照组。六年级的学生接受了为期6周的核心课程,加上额外的会议,通过等级7和8。在为期2年的研究期间,收集了5次用于验证自我报告的吸烟行为的样本和唾液样本。横断面和纵向分析检查了5个级别的初始吸烟经验,从从不吸烟者到定期,每周吸烟者的计划影响。显著的计划效果被记录下来,最明显的是那些在计划开始前就有吸烟经验的人,以及那些有吸烟同伴和家庭模式的人。这项研究提供了迄今为止对预防吸烟的社会影响计划进行的方法学上最严格的测试,并首次记录了对吸烟高危人群的显着影响。
Recent evaluations of smoking prevention programs have suggested considerable promise for curricula emphasizing resistance of social influences. These evaluations were extended by addressing key methodological limitations in previous work. Twenty-two matched schools were randomized to experimental and control conditions. Grade 6 students received a 6-wk core curriculum, plus additional sessions through grades 7 and 8. Questionnaires and saliva samples to validate self-reported smoking behavior were collected at 5 times over the 2-yr study period. Cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses examined program impact for 5 levels of initial smoking experience, ranging from never smoker through regular, weekly smoker. Significant program effects were documented, most clearly for those having some experience with smoking before the program began and for those with smoking peer and family models. This study provides the methodologically most rigorous test to date of social influence programs for smoking prevention and documents for the 1st time significant effects for those at high risk for smoking.
