2006 年，我们通过电话采访了 732 名吸烟者（来自美国中西部北部的五个州），以调查年轻人的吸烟模式。我们首先定义两组间歇性吸烟者——低度（过去30天内吸烟1-14天）和高（过去30天内吸烟15-29天），然后分析这两组与日常吸烟者之间的差异。与高间歇性吸烟者相比，低间歇性吸烟者认为自己是吸烟者、上瘾或与朋友一起吸烟的可能性要小得多。每天吸烟的人比间歇性吸烟的人更容易上瘾并且难以戒烟。将讨论未来研究的含义、局限性和想法。
We interviewed 732 smokers (from five US upper Midwestern states) via telephone in 2006 to examine young adult smoking patterns. We first defined two groups of intermittent smokers-low (who smoked for 1-14 days in the past 30 days) and high (who smoked for 15-29 days in the past 30 days), and then analyzed differences between these two groups and daily smokers. Low intermittent smokers were much less likely to consider themselves smokers, feel addicted, or smoke with friends than high intermittent smokers. Daily smokers were more likely to feel addicted and have trouble quitting smoking than high intermittent smokers. Implications, limitations, and ideas for future studies will be discussed.
