Abstract

Smoking declines are uneven around the world, and we have few studies on the correlates of youth smoking in contexts like Saudi Arabia, where declines have been slowest. Using a broadly socio-ecological framework and network data, we report on one of the few studies to simultaneously examine peer, family, and school features associated with smoking in the Saudi context. We find strong and consistent peer and family associations with both occasional and regular smoking via direct modeling (level of peers/family that also smoke) and substantive interactions (lying to parents in the family domain, engaging in unsupervised youth-centric activities, or seeking popularity in the peer domain). Although our design precludes causal claims, our results are consistent with smoking initiation being driven by occasional use surrounding attempts to gain youth social status, whereas regular use depends on implicit family and peer acceptance.

沙特青年吸烟的同伴和社会关系。
世界各地的吸烟率下降是不平衡的,我们很少有关于沙特阿拉伯等国家青少年吸烟的相关性的研究,那里的吸烟率下降得最慢。使用广泛的社会生态框架和网络数据,我们报告了为数不多的同时检查沙特背景下与吸烟相关的同伴,家庭和学校特征的研究之一。我们通过直接建模(同龄人/家庭也吸烟的水平)和实质性互动(在家庭领域对父母撒谎,参与无人监督的以青少年为中心的活动,或在同龄人领域寻求受欢迎程度)发现,偶尔和经常吸烟与同龄人和家庭之间存在强烈而一致的联系。虽然我们的设计排除了因果关系的主张,但我们的结果与吸烟的开始是一致的,吸烟是由偶尔使用周围试图获得青年社会地位,而经常使用取决于隐性家庭和同伴接受。
