Year 2019, Volume: 2 Issue: 2, 109 - 123, 16.08.2019

Abstract

Smoking causes quite
important problems in our health both in terms of individual and public health.
The fact that cigarettes contain some addictive substances causes the
individuals who become acquainted with smoking especially at a young age to
become addicted to cigarettes in the following years. This situation draws
attention to the importance of early ages for the prevention of smoking.
Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the cigarette consumption of
Cukurova University students.
The cigarette consumption of the students is
investigated using Heckman's two-stage method.
Survey data applied to 300
students were used in the study.
The obtained results indicate that increased income
more than the growth of cigarette consumption. In addition, it was concluded
that the presence of smokers in the family increased the consumption of
cigarettes besides psychological factors such as stress and sedation.

ÇUKUROVA ÜNİVERSİTESİ ÖĞRENCİLERİNİN SİGARA KULLANIMININ ARAŞTIRILMASI: İKİ AŞAMALI HECKMAN YÖNTEMİ

Year 2019, Volume: 2 Issue: 2, 109 - 123, 16.08.2019

Abstract

Sigara
gönümüzde hem birey hem de toplum sağlığı açısından oldukça önemli sorunlara
neden olmaktadır. Sigaranın bağımlılık yapıcı bazı maddeler barındırması özellikle
genç yaşlarda sigara ile tanışan bireylerin ilerleyen yıllarda sigaraya bağımlı
hale gelmesine neden olmaktadır. Bu durum sigaranın önlenmesi için erken yaşların
önemine dikkat çekmektedir. Dolayısıyla, bu çalışmanın amacı Çukurova
Üniversitesi öğrencilerinin sigara tüketiminin araştırılmasıdır. Öğrencilerin
sigara tüketimi Heckman’ın iki aşamalı yöntemi kullanılarak araştırılmıştır. Çalışmada
300 öğrenciye uygulanan anket verileri kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar,
artan gelirin sigara tüketimindeki artıştan daha fazla olduğunu göstermektedir.
Bunun dışında, stres ve sakinleştirmek gibi psikolojik etmenlerin yanında ailede
sigara içenlerin varlığı sigara tüketimini arttırdığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
