Abstract

Kadınlar için sigara içmeye başlama, devam etme ve bırakma nedenleri erkeklerden farklıdır. Bu çalışma, Türkiye’de 2008 yılından 2014 yılına kadar, sigara içme oranı ve yoğunluğunda cinsiyete göre ortaya çıkan değişiklikleri araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Sonuçlar, sigara içme kararında ve sigara içme miktarındaki önemli farklılıkları göstermektedir. Çalışma sonuçları, ayrıca, sigara içme yasağının etkilerinin zamanla azaldığını ve özellikle kadınlar için sigara içme oranı ve tüketim düzeyinin 2014 yılında 2008 seviyelerinden daha yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu çalışma sigaraya başlama ve sigara tüketim yoğunluğu için kadın ve erkekler nezdinde farklı politikalar tasarlanmasına ihtiyaç olduğunu önermektedir.

Gender Differences in Smoking Behaviour: Analysing the Changes for the 2008-2014 Period in Turkey

Abstract

The motivations and reasons for smoking initiation, continuation, and cessation for women are different from men. This paper investigates the differences in smoking rate and intensity by gender in Turkey from 2008 to 2014. The results indicate significant differences in the decision to smoke and how much to smoke by gender. Results further indicate that the positive effects of the anti-smoking policies are fading away over time. Especially for women, the smoking and consumption levels are higher in 2014 than in 2008. This study argues that policies designed to combat the initialization and the intensity of smoking should account for the behavioural differences observed across genders.
