大学入学早期からの喫煙防止教育の大切さがこれまでに指摘されていたが,喫煙防止教育の効果に関してほとんど検討されていない.本研究は,大学新入学時に喫煙防止教育を施行し,その前後の喫煙に対する態度や喫煙防止教育を行う意欲や自信の変化等を検討することを目的とした.2008 年4 月に,新入生74 名(男子54 名,女子20 名)を対象に喫煙防止教育を施行し,教育の直前とその一週間後に同一アンケート調査を行い,PASW Statistics 18.0 for Windows を使用し,c 2 検定及びt 検定を行った.喫煙防止教育後の喫煙者の禁煙に対する関心度や非喫煙者の喫煙に対する関心度には,有意差は見られなかった.さらに,喫煙防止教育を受けた経験が十分あるかという質問に関しては,「タバコの害」と「タバコの依存性」では教育前と有意差は無く,「禁煙指導の方法」に関してのみ,有意に上昇した.しかし,喫煙行動に対する態度に関しては,「医療施設の全面禁煙化」以外の全項目で有意に上昇した.さらに,タバコに関する社会の動きに対する関心度が有意に高まり,喫煙防止教育に対する意欲や自信も有意に上昇した.本研究は長期的な教育効果を検討するには不十分であるが,喫煙防止教育として新入生の意識向上に良い影響を与えた.

Several studies have discussed the importance of educatingstudents on smoking prevention during the initial yearsof university education. In this study we examined thechanging perceptions of smoking behavior among freshmenin university just before and after 1 week of education onthe health hazards due to smoking.In April, 2008, 74 freshmen (54 boys and 20 girls) of aparamedical university were provided health education onthe hazards caused by smoking, and the changes in the perceptionsregarding the smoking behavior were examinedby the basis of a questionnaire that was answered by thestudents before and after the education;the same questionnairewas filled both the times. For statistical examination,c 2 test and t test were performed using IBM SPSS(PASW Statistics 18.0) for Windows.Even after educating the students on smoking prevention,there was no significant difference in the attitude ofsmokers toward smoking cessation and that of non-smokerstoward smoking. Although the awareness among thestudents with regard to the health hazards of smoking wasnot significantly different before and after this education,their awareness of the methods to quit smoking had increasedsignificantly. Moreover, the mean values of the differentopinions on the smoking behavior increased significantly.However, one exception was the opinions in themedical institutions that had tobacco-free environments.The mean values that increased the highest after this education,were "Implementation of non-smoking in the entireuniversity" and "The need for effective education that assistsin quitting smoking."
