目标.本研究旨在比较来自不同国家的拉丁美洲男性和女性的吸烟行为。在8个城市进行了一项电话管理的调查,不同国籍的拉丁裔男女居住在人口普查区,至少有70%的拉丁裔人,结果。共有8882名参与者完成了调查:53%是女性,受访者的平均年龄为44岁; 63%是外国出生的,59%的受访者更喜欢西班牙语。男性(25.0%,95%置信区间[CI] = 23.7,26.3)中目前吸烟的比例高于女性(12.1%,95% CI = 11.1,13.0)。不同民族的男子吸烟率没有显著差异,但波多黎各妇女的吸烟率高于其他妇女,中美洲男子和妇女的吸烟率最低。与美国出生的受访者相比,外国出生的受访者吸烟的可能性较小(比值比[OR] = 0.77,95% CI = 0.66,0.90),受教育年限为12年或以下的受访者吸烟的可能性较高(OR = 1.17,95% CI 1.01,1.35)。高文化适应与女性吸烟较多(OR = 1.12,95%CI 1.00-1.25)和男性吸烟较少(OR = 0.86,95%CI 0.78-0.95)相关。波多黎各和古巴受访者更有可能是目前的吸烟者,每天吸烟超过20支,7结论。年龄较大、在美国出生和受教育程度较高的受访者目前吸烟的可能性较小。波多黎各和古巴裔的受访者更有可能吸烟,文化适应对性别吸烟行为的影响不同。
Objectives. This study sought to compare smoking behavior among Latino men and women from different countries of origin.Methods. A telephone-administered survey was conducted in 8 cities with Latino men and women of different national origin living in census tracts with at least 70% Latino individuals,Results. A total of 8882 participants completed the survey: 53% were women, The average age of respondents was 44 years; 63% were foreign-born, and 59% preferred Spanish for the interview. Current smoking was more prevalent among men (25.0%, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 23.7, 26.3) than among women (12.1%, 95% CI = 11.1, 13.0). Smoking rates were not significantly different by national origin among men, but Puerto Rican women had higher rates of smoking than other women, Central American men and women had the lowest smoking rates. Foreign-born respondents were less likely to be smokers (odds ratio [OR] = 0.77, 95% CI = 0.66, 0.90) than US-born respondents, and respondents with 12 years or less of education had an increased odds of smoking (OR = 1.17, 95% CI 1.01, 1.35). High acculturation was associated with more smoking in women (OR = 1.12, 95% CI 1.00-1.25) and less smoking in men (OR = 0.86,95% CI = 0.78-0.95). Puerto Rican and Cuban respondents were more likely to be current smokers and to smoke more than 20 cigarettes per day, 7Conclusions. Older, US-born, and more-educated respondents were less likely to be current smokers. Respondents of Puerto Rican and Cuban origin were more likely to smoke, Acculturation has divergent effects on smoking behavior by sex.
