Resumen
HERA-FUENTES, Gina La; TORRES-RUIZ, Ricardo y RADA-NORIEGA, Jorge Dennis. Seduction and aversion: susceptibility and disincentive factors among 13 to 15 years old Bolivian teenagers. Salud pública Méx [online]. 2017, vol.59, suppl.1, pp.73-79. ISSN 0036-3634. https://doi.org/10.21149/7729.
Objective:
To analyze tobacco consumption susceptibility and disincentive factors among non-smoker teenagers in Bolivia.
Materials and methods:
A secondary data analysis of the Global Youth Tobacco Survey was conducted. A multivariate logistic regression was developed to estimate the relation between the susceptibility to smoke and social factors, smoking behaviour, and tobacco control policies.
Results:
Susceptibility increases by: close smoker friends (OR=1.74); comfort perception when smoking on social events (OR=1.86); observing smokers in public places (OR=1.54); teenager’s cigarettes promotion (OR=4.05); exposure to tobacco advertising (OR=2.08); and male teenagers (OR=2.00). Tobacco disincentives are parental information about smoking (OR=0.38) and health warning labels (OR=0.63).
Conclusion:
Bolivia requires, at minimum, to implement the other basic measures of the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.
