本文介绍了一个项目的初步结果,利用不引人注目的参与者观察,调查不遵守工作场所烟草控制条例内的独立酒吧在加利福尼亚城。早期的调查结果表明,样本中有一半的酒吧完全遵守了法律,而其他酒吧可以说是从吸烟过渡到禁烟,少数酒吧仍然一贯不遵守。在50.4%的酒吧中完全没有吸烟。在49.6%的酒吧中,至少观察到一次吸烟,14.9%的特征是地方性吸烟。在研究过程中,9%的吸烟酒吧可能已经从吸烟转变为禁烟,其余酒吧的特点是偶然吸烟(包括门口吸烟,孤独的吸烟者和关闭时间吸烟)。加强烟草控制政策的遵守的影响进行了讨论。
This paper describes initial findings from a project utilizing unobtrusive participant observation to investigate noncompliance with workplace tobacco control regulations within stand-alone bars in one California city. Early findings indicate that half of the bars in the sample fully complied with the law, while other bars could be described as in transition from smoking to nonsmoking, and a minority of bars remained consistently noncompliant. No smoking at all was observed in 50.4% of bars. Of the 49.6% of bars in which smoking was observed at least once, 14.9% were characterized by endemic smoking. Nine percent of smoking bars may have converted from smoking to nonsmoking over the course of the study, and the remaining bars were characterized by incidental smoking (including doorway smoking, lone smokers, and closing time smoking). Implications for enhancing compliance with tobacco control policies are discussed.
