ÜNİVERSİTE ÖĞRENCİLERİNDE SİGARA BIRAKMA SIKLIĞI VE DAVRANIŞ ÖZELLİKLERİNİN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmada Konya’da üniversite öğrencilerinde sigara bırakma sıklığı ve davranışlarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Yöntem: Bu çalışmada 613 sigarayı bırakan üniversite öğrencisi yer almıştır. Katılanlar 17 farklı fakülteden çok aşamalı örneklem yoluyla seçilmiştir. Veriler yüzyüze görüşülerek uygulanan anket yoluyla elde edilmiştir. İstatistiksel analiz için ki-kare testi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Sigarayı bırakanların çoğunluğu (%98) sigaraya 21 yaş altında başlamıştı ve %70’i sigaranın zararlı etkileri hakkında bilgiye sahipti. Sigara bırakmada en etkin yol olarak aniden bırakma tespit edildi (%55.7). Sonuç: Türkiye’de sigara içme alışkanlığı önemli bir halk sağlığı problemidir. Etkili ve kapsamlı bir ulusal sigara control programına acilen ihtiyaç vardır.
