为了探讨大多数叙利亚妇女不吸烟的主观动机，我们在阿勒颇的初级卫生保健患者中进行了一项横断面调查，使用访谈者管理的问卷，动机分为传统和规范，家庭价值观，健康问题，个人信念，经济，宗教等。研究参与者（n = 240）的平均年龄为29岁。在不吸烟者中，传统和规范以及健康问题是不吸烟的主要原因，其次是家庭价值观、丈夫对吸烟的看法、个人原因。信仰、经济原因和宗教原因。动机根据参与者的吸烟史、婚姻状况而不同。和教育状况。受教育程度较高的妇女往往有自己的动机，其基础是对吸烟问题有更全面的认识。烟草控制工作的目标应该是以知情的积极障碍取代传统的消极障碍。(C)2003年皇家公共卫生研究所。由Elsevier Science Ltd.出版，版权所有。
To explore the subjective motivations why most Syrian women do not smoke, we performed a cross-sectional survey among primary healthcare patients in Aleppo using an interviewer-administered questionnaire with motivations categorized as traditions and norms, family values, health concerns, personal conviction, economic, religious and other. Study participants (n = 240) had a mean age of 29 years. Among non-smokers, traditions and norms, and health concerns were the main reasons for not smoking, followed by family values, husband's views about smoking, personal. conviction, economic reasons and religious reasons. Motivations differed according to the participants' previous smoking, marital. and educational status. Better-educated women tended to have their own motives based on a more complete awareness of the smoking problem. Tobacco control efforts should aim at replacing the passive barrier of traditions with a well-informed positive one. (C) 2003 The Royal Institute of Pubtic Health. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
