吸烟者可以从多种渠道获得戒烟建议。在2013年ITC四国调查中,1211名澳大利亚吸烟者或最近戒烟的人对八种建议来源的感知重要性进行了评级,这些来源分为循证、非循证、个人经历和替代经历(各两项),并对他们的戒烟意图、尼古丁依赖、戒烟药物使用、健康担忧和伤害信念进行了评级。8项指标均呈正相关。那些更重视他们的经历(无论是个人经历还是替代经历)的受访者更有可能同意吸烟相关危害的证据被夸大了,尽管总体上不太可能打算戒烟,但这些反应与戒烟意图最密切相关。值得注意的是,在回答所有来源都“根本不重要”(或不知道)的人中,只有3.2%的人表示有兴趣在未来6个月内戒烟(相比之下,支持戒烟的人中有36.0%),12.8%的人经常担心吸烟对他们健康的影响(相比之下,60.4%),73.7%的人同意“吸烟不比其他东西更危险”(相比之下,34.5%)。没有证据表明拒绝基于证据的来源(医疗或政府)而支持其他来源与较低的戒烟意图或行为有关。
Smokers are exposed to advice about quitting from numerous sources. Within the 2013 ITC 4-Country Survey, 1211 Australian smokers or recent ex-smokers rated the perceived importance of eight sources of advice, categorized into evidence-based, non evidence-based, personal experience and vicarious experience (two items each), and also rated their intention to quit, nicotine dependence, use of quit medication, health concerns and harm beliefs. The eight items were all positively correlated. Respondents who placed greater importance on their experiences (either personal or vicarious) were more likely to agree that the evidence for smoking-related harm is exaggerated, and although not more likely to intend to quit overall, these responses were most strongly related to quit intention. Notably, of those responding that all sources were ‘not at all important’ (or don't know), only 3.2% reported any interest in quitting in the next 6 months (compared to 36.0% among those who endorsed any), 12.8% were often concerned about smoking’s effect on their health (compared with 60.4%), and 73.7% agreed that ‘smoking is no more risky than other things' (compared with 34.5%). There was no evidence that rejecting evidence-based sources (medical or governmental) in favour of other sources was associated with lower quit intentions or behaviour.
