电影中的吸烟镜头与青少年吸烟的吸收和维持密切相关。然而，对于电影的哪些特征（例如，吸烟的背景或角色吸烟的动机）缓和了电影吸烟与青少年吸烟之间的联系，人们知之甚少。这项实验室研究考察了电影中被描述为有明确动机的吸烟场景与被描述为没有明确动机的吸烟场景是否与吸烟欲望有不同的联系。方法77名中学生（平均年龄12.8岁，62%男性，60%白人）观看了将吸烟描述为有助于促进社会交往、放松、显得叛逆或没有明确动机的电影片段。在观看完每个片段后，参与者对自己的吸烟欲望进行打分。结果：与吸烟动机不明确的片段相比，观看吸烟被描述为帮助角色放松的片段，吸烟的欲望明显更强。在动机不明确的视频、社交吸烟视频和叛逆吸烟视频中，吸烟欲望是相似的。这些结果表明，电影中描绘吸烟的方式对决定其对青少年吸烟的影响很重要。
IntroductionExposure to smoking in movies is strongly associated with smoking uptake and maintenance among adolescents. However, little is known about what features of movies (e.g., the context for smoking or motives for a character smoking) moderate the association between exposure to movie smoking and adolescent smoking. This laboratory study examined whether exposure to movie smoking that is portrayed as having a clear motive is associated with the desire to smoke differently than smoking that is portrayed as having no clear motive.MethodsA sample of 77 middle school students (mean age of 12.8 years, 62% male, 60% Caucasian) viewed movie clips that portrayed smoking as helping to facilitate social interaction, to relax, to appear rebellious, or as having no clear motive. After exposure to each clip, participants rated their desire to smoke.ResultsExposure to clips where smoking was portrayed as helping characters to relax was associated with a significantly stronger desire to smoke compared with clips where the motive for smoking was unclear. Desire to smoke was similar for clips where no motive was clear, social smoking clips, and rebellious smoking clips.DiscussionThese results suggest that the way that smoking is portrayed in movies is important in determining its effect on adolescent smoking.
