Abstract

This study aims to determine the variables affecting the cigarette consumption of households by employing logistic regression analysis based on the data of the Turkish Statistical Institute (TUIK) 2017 Household Budget Survey (HBA). In this model, the variables that affect cigarette consumption, namely, gender, age, education level, marital status, occupation, and the total disposable income earned by the household head in a year, are used. The results of this study indicate that variables of income, occupation and education of the household head affect cigarette consumption in Turkey. In this context, it is expected that focusing on young people, low educated and income groups in the fight against smoking will increase the success of the policies implemented.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, 2017 Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu (TÜİK) Hanehalkı Bütçe Anketi (HBA) verileri kullanılarak hanehalkının sigara tüketimini etkileyen değişkenlerin etkisinin lojistik regresyon analizi ile belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu nedenle, sigara tüketimine etki ettiği düşünülen değişkenler olarak; hanehalkı reisinin cinsiyeti, yaşı, eğitim düzeyi, medeni durumu, mesleği ile hanenin bir yıl içinde elde ettiği toplam kullanılabilir gelir kullanılmıştır. Çalışmadan elde edilen sonuca göre, Türkiye’de hanehalkına ait meslek, gelir ve eğitim değişkenlerinin hanedeki sigara tüketimini etkilediği görülmektedir. Bu bağlamda, gençlere, düşük eğitimli ve gelir gruplarına odaklanılmasının sigara ile mücadelede uygulanan politikaların başarısını artıracağı beklenmektedir.
