社会规范方法表明，如果向参考人群提供关于烟草行为的感知规范的准确信息，参考人群中的烟草使用将会减少。本研究采用青少年烟草政策调查第二波的11-16岁青少年（n = 804）样本，调查了青少年对未来吸烟意图的烟草相关规范感知。结构方程模型被用来分析，同时，假设的规范模型对青少年吸烟者和从不吸烟者之间的未来吸烟意向。虽然在青少年吸烟者的感知患病率，烟草行业的看法和吸烟的风险与未来的吸烟意图，在从不吸烟者只有感知兄弟姐妹批准与未来的吸烟意图。这项研究强调，需要开展更全面的反烟草相关运动，将与反映这些规范类型的行为有关的信息和刺激纳入其中。(C)2009年，青少年服务专业人员协会。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
The social norms approach suggests that tobacco use among a referent population will reduce provided they are presented with accurate information about the perceived norms of that behaviour. This study investigated adolescents' perceived tobacco-related norms on future smoking intentions, using a sample of 11-16 year olds (n = 804) from wave two of the Youth Tobacco Policy Survey. Structural equation modelling was used to analyse, simultaneously, the hypothesized normative model on future smoking intentions among both adolescent smokers and never smokers. While among adolescent smokers perceived prevalence, perceptions of the tobacco industry and risk from smoking were associated with future smoking intentions, among never smokers only perceived sibling approval was associated with future smoking intentions. The research highlights the need for more comprehensive anti-tobacco related campaigns that incorporate messages and stimuli relevant to behaviour reflecting these normative types.
