Abstract

Purpose : The objective of this study was to determine smoking habits among apprentices and to learn their opinions about smoking. Material and Method : The study was carried out on 381 students attending an apprenticeship school by using a self-administered questionnaire including knowledge, attitudes and habits on smoking. Result : The mean age of the apprentice was 17.1 years ( 84.9 % males, 15.1 % females ). Eighty-four point nine percent had tried smoking once while prevalence of regular smoking (min. 1 cigarette/day) was 38.6 %. Average age of starting to smoke was 12.6 years. The most frequent reasons for trying to smoke were curiosity and having friends who smoked. Regular smoking rate increased with age and it was significantly higher in boys. Smoking was related to having a mother who smoked and to having friends who smoked. There was a positive correlation between the number of persons who smoked and the percentage of regular smoking at a workplace with a statistical significance. Conclusion : We found a high proportion of smokers among apprentices. It was determined that friends and workers who smoke play an important role on this condition.
