目标。本研究旨在探讨中国男性员工工作场所社会资本与吸烟状况之间的关系。采用两阶段分层抽样的横断面研究方法于2012年在上海开展。共有来自35个工作场所的1603名男性工人参与了调查。工作场所社会资本的评估使用了一种经过验证和心理测量学测试的八项测量方法。通过多水平logistic回归分析，探讨了个人层面的社会资本和工作场所层面的社会资本是否与吸烟相关。总体而言，目前有54.2%的受试者吸烟。在控制个体协变量（年龄、教育水平、婚姻状况、职业状况和工作压力）后，与个人社会资本最高四分位数的工人相比，第三四分位数、第二四分位数和最低四分位数的工人吸烟患病率分别为1.26 （95% CI: 1.11-1.38）、135 （95% CI: 1.19-1.50）和1.39 （95% CI: 1.24-1.51）。然而，工作场所社会资本与吸烟状况之间没有关系。在中国男性雇员中，较高的个人层面社会资本与较低的吸烟可能性相关。相比之下，在工作场所层面的社会资本和吸烟之间没有发现明显的联系。进一步的纵向研究有必要检验中国工作场所社会资本与戒烟之间可能存在的联系。(C) 2013爱思唯尔公司版权所有。
Objectives. The present study sought to investigate the associations between workplace social capital and smoking status among Chinese male employees.Methods. A cross sectional study with a two-stage stratified sampling procedure was conducted in Shanghai in 2012. In total, 1603 male workers from 35 workplaces were involved. Workplace social capital was assessed using a validated and psychometrically tested eight-item measure. Multilevel logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore whether individual-level social capital and aggregated workplace-level social capital were associated with smoking.Results. Overall, 54.2% of the subjects smoked currently. After controlling for individual covariates (age, education level, marital status, occupational status and job stress), compared to workers in the highest quartile of individual-level social capital, the prevalence ratios of smoking for workers in the third quartile, second quartile and lowest quartile were 1.26 (95% CI: 1.11-1.38), 135 (95% CI: 1.19-1.50) and 1.39 (95% CI: 1.24-1.51) respectively. However, there was no relationship between workplace-level social capital and smoking status.Conclusions. Higher individual-level social capital was associated with a lower likelihood of smoking among Chinese male employees. By contrast, no clear association was found between workplace-level social capital and smoking. Further longitudinal studies are warranted to examine the possible link between workplace social capital and smoking cessation in Chinese workplaces. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
