青少年吸烟行为的阶段性研究已被广泛应用。本文研究了社会环境和个人因素对设拉子市20所高中10年级男生吸烟连续三个阶段的影响。本文是一项关于青少年吸烟及其阶段性转变预测因素的纵向研究的第一步。一份自填式问卷被分发给10年级的1,132名学生，这些学生可能有14,000名学生。采用多元判别函数分析法对数据进行分析。总的来说，19.4%的学生吸烟; 80.6%，16.9%和2.5%的人从来没有吸烟，有实验，并经常吸烟，分别。判别函数分析表明，对吸烟的态度，使用酒精，使用违禁药物，最好的朋友吸烟的行为，和自尊更强烈的吸烟行为。最后，这些变量允许70.3%的学生到吸烟收购阶段的正确分类。这一发现具有重要的公共卫生意义，但需要进一步的研究来确定这种关联是否是因果关系。
A staged model of smoking adoption has been widely applied in studies of adolescent smoking. This paper examined the effects of socioenvironmental and personal factors on three stages of the smoking continuum among a sample of 10th-grade male students, ages 14-19 years, at 20 high schools in Shiraz city. This paper is the first step of a longitudinal study related to adolescents smoking and predictors of transition in the stages. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to 1,132 10th-grade students from a possible population of 14,000 students. Multivariate discriminant function analysis was used to analyze the data. Overall 19.4% of students had smoked; 80.6%, 16.9%, and 2.5% had never smoked, had experimented, and had regularly smoked, respectively. The discriminant function analysis indicated that attitude toward smoking, use of alcohol, use of illicit drugs, smoking behavior of best friends, and self-esteem were related to more intense smoking behaviors. Finally, these variables permitted the correct classification of 70.3% of students into the stages of smoking acquisition. This finding has important public health significance, but further research is required to determine if the association is causal.
