简介 吸水烟 (WTS) 经常发生在社交场合，通过二手烟效应增加吸烟者和其他人的健康风险。虽然有关 WTS 危害的信息会增加自身的感知风险，但这些信息是否会增加他人（例如参与 WTS 的浪漫伴侣）的感知风险尚不清楚。我们通过调查参与 WTS 的双吸烟夫妇中的一名成员来测试这一想法。 目标和方法作为在线研究的一部分，我们招募了参与 WTS 的 18-30 岁成年人，并且其伴侣参与 WTS 的承诺关系至少有 6 个月。参与者被随机分配至对照组或两组中的一组，分别观看有关健康危害的简短视频或克服有关 WTS 的误解。结果是对自己和伴侣的感知伤害以及欲望和戒烟概率的衡量。结果观看任一视频的参与者（N = 238）与未观看视频的参与者相比，报告了对自己和伴侣更大的感知健康风险，并且他们自己的 WTS 伤害了他们的伴侣。观看任一视频的参与者都表示自己更愿意戒烟，认为他们的伴侣也更愿意戒烟，并报告在未来 6 个月内一起戒烟的可能性更高。结论包含基于风险的信息的简短视频会增加年轻成年水烟吸烟者对自己和伴侣戒烟的感知危害和意愿。这可能是激励参与 WTS 的夫妇戒烟的有用策略。这项研究首次表明，至少在参与 WTS 的双烟夫妇中，关于 WTS 危害的简短视频会影响自己和伴侣的感知危害和戒烟动机。这可能是促进戒烟的有用策略。
IntroductionWaterpipe tobacco smoking (WTS) often occurs socially, increasing health risks for the smoker and others through secondhand smoke effects. While messages on WTS harms enhance perceived risks for self, whether these messages elevate perceived risks for others, such as one’s romantic partner who engages in WTS, is unclear. We tested this idea by surveying one member of dual-smoking couples who engages in WTS.Aims and MethodsAs part of an online study, we enrolled adults ages 18–30 who engaged in WTS and were in a committed relationship of at least 6 months whose partner engaged in WTS. Participants were randomized to a control arm or to one of two arms consisting of watching a brief video on health harms or overcoming myths about WTS, respectively. Outcomes were perceived harms and measures of desire and probability of quitting for self and partner.ResultsParticipants (N= 238) who watched either video, compared with participants who did not watch a video, reported greater perceived health risks for self and partner and that their own WTS harmed their partner. Participants who watched either video reported a greater desire to quit for themselves, perceived that their partner had a greater desire to quit, and reported a higher likelihood of quitting together in the next 6 months.ConclusionsBrief videos containing risk-based messaging increase young adult waterpipe tobacco smokers’ perceived harms and desire to quit for self and partner. This can be a useful strategy to motivate cessation in couples who engage in WTS.ImplicationsThis study shows for the first time that at least among one member of dual-smoking couples who engages in WTS, brief videos on harms of WTS influences perceived harms and motivation to quit for the self and one’s partner. This can be a useful strategy to promote cessation.
