使用 1985 年全国 25-64 岁人群健康访谈调查的数据,我们在多元逻辑回归分析中同时控制了社会经济地位 (SES)、人口因素和种族。我们发现,当其他变量受到控制时,黑人吸烟的几率并不比白人更高。相比之下,黑人大量吸烟的几率远低于白人,而无论社会经济地位或人口因素如何,黑人戒烟的可能性明显低于白人,因此在规划戒烟和预防计划时必须考虑到这些行为、社会经济地位和人口统计学差异。
Using data from the 1985 National Health Interview Survey for persons aged 25-64 years, we contolled simultaneously for socioeconomic status (SES), demographic factors, and race in multivariate logistic regression analyses. We found that the odds of ever smoking are not higher for Blacks compared with Whites, when the other variables are controlled. By contrast, the odds of heavy smoking for Blacks are far less than for Whites, while Blacks are significantly less likely than Whites to quit smoking regardless of SES or demographic factors, Smoking cessation and prevention programs must be planned with these behavioral, SES, and demographic differences in mind.
