Abstract

The purpose of this study is to evaluate/model the correlation between cigarette addiction of individuals and government policies to fight against their tobacco consumptions, and make recommendations to researchers and decision-makers with the findings of this study. In addition to the data collected with a survey in Zonguldak, cigarette addiction severity index is calculated for each individual via TOPSIS techniques in three different scenarios. The differentiations of factor scores with respect to subgroups of respondents are evaluated via statistical tests. According to correlation/regression analysis, there appears to be a correlation between taxes on cigarettes and other methods of government to fight against smoking and individuals’ cigarette addiction. Moreover, the tax on cigarettes and other methods of government to fight against smoking have an important effect on the level of cigarette addiction, along with gender, age, education level, purchase power of the consumer.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı bireylerde sigara bağımlılığı ve devletin sigara tüketimi ile mücadele yöntemleri arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesi/modellenmesi ve elde edilen bulguların karar vericilere/araştırmacılara sunulmasıdır. Zonguldak’ta yürütülen anket çalışması verileriyle sigara bağımlılığı şiddet indeksi, her bir birey için TOPSIS yöntemiyle 3 farklı senaryoda hesaplanmıştır. Faktör puanlarının alt gruplara göre farklılaşması istatistiksel testlerle değerlendirilmiştir. Korelasyon/regresyon analizine göre, sigara üzerindeki vergiler ve diğer mücadele yöntemleri ile bireylerin sigara bağımlılığı arasında bir ilişki olduğu gözlenmiştir. Üstelik hükümetin sigaradaki vergi düzeyi ve diğer mücadele yöntemlerinin, tüketicinin cinsiyet, yaş, eğitim ve harcama düzeyi ile birlikte sigara bağımlılığı derecesi üzerinde önemli bir etkiye sahip olduğu görülmüştür.
