继几个国家限制在载有儿童的车辆内吸烟之后,保护未成年人免受车辆二手烟危害的立法正在考虑之中,或已在联合王国各地实施。本文介绍了第一次调查的社会结构的儿童,吸烟者和吸烟的父母在报纸媒体和报道的辩论,保护儿童免受二手烟的车辆。以苏格兰为例,使用Nexis UK识别了2004年1月1日至2014年2月16日期间在三家苏格兰报纸上发表的关于儿童接触二手烟的文章。共对131篇文章进行了主题编码和分析。儿童被描述为脆弱的,需要保护,很少有文章强调儿童有能力表达对吸烟危害的关切。吸烟者和吸烟的父母主要是以事实的方式被描绘出来的,但也经常被描绘成不负责任的,在某些情况下,故意造成伤害。个别吸烟者因其鲁莽行为而受到指责,只有少数文章提到需要帮助吸烟者戒烟。立法的支持者侧重于相应的话语,而批评者则将辩论引向反对政策的既定论点,包括个人自由、隐私和执行问题。关注儿童对二手烟的脆弱性可能会增加对立法的支持,但可能会产生吸烟者被污名化的副作用。鼓励媒体和公共卫生政策的支持者考虑采取适当的方法,提高对二手烟对儿童健康危害的认识,同时避免对那些他们希望鼓励改变行为的人进行无意的污名化。
Following restrictions on smoking in vehicles carrying children in several countries, legislation to safeguard minors from second-hand smoke exposure in vehicles is under-consideration or has been implemented across the United Kingdom. This article presents the first investigation into social constructions of children, smokers and smoking parents in newsprint media and coverage of debates about protecting children from exposure to second-hand smoke in vehicles. Using Scotland as an example, articles on children’s exposure to second-hand smoke published between 1 January 2004 and 16 February 2014 in three Scottish newspapers were identified using Nexis UK. In all, 131 articles were thematically coded and analysed. Children were portrayed as vulnerable and requiring protection, with few articles highlighting children’s ability to voice concerns about the dangers of smoking. Smokers and smoking parents were mainly portrayed in a factual manner, but also frequently as irresponsible and, in some cases, intentionally imposing harm. Individual smokers were blamed for their recklessness, with only a small number of articles mentioning the need to assist smokers in quitting. Supporters of legislation focused on corresponding discourse, whereas critics directed debates towards established arguments against policy, including individual freedom, privacy and problems of enforcement. Focusing on children’s vulnerability to second-hand smoke might have increased support for legislation but risked a side effect of smokers being stigmatised. The media and supporters of public health policy are encouraged to consider appropriate approaches to raise awareness of the health harms of second-hand smoke to children while avoiding unintended stigmatisation of those in which they want to encourage behaviour change.
