为了探索美国阿拉伯也门青少年中水烟吸烟的预测因素，使用了描述性相关设计，并从297名参加青少年健康诊所和两所高中的青少年的方便样本中测试了代表研究中提出的关系的回归模型。参与者完成了五项测试。测试了14个假设。研究发现，烟草实验在预测未成年人吸烟方面具有重要意义。针对这一人群的烟草使用预防和戒烟干预措施可侧重于针对家庭和同伴单位，因为他们的身份可能来源于家庭和同伴单位。
To explore the predictors of water-pipe smoking among American Arab Yemeni adolescents, a descriptive correlational design was used, and regression models representing the proposed relationships in the study were tested from a convenience sample of 297 adolescents who attended a teen health clinic and two high schools. The participants completed five measures. Fourteen hypotheses were tested. Experimentation with tobacco was found to be significant in predicting narghile smoking. Tobacco use prevention and cessation interventions for this population can be focused on targeting the family and peer units, from which their identity is likely derived.
