주요내용

Background: The smoking rate among Korean adolescent is increasing. Since adolescents spend most of their days in school, it is imperative that their health-related value and behaviors are largely influenced by school environment. While individual, family and peer factors have been widely studied by a number of
previous studies on adolescent smoking, little attention has been paid to school environment factors.
Objectives: The aim of this study is to examine the environmental characteristics of schools as a determining
risk factor of adolescent smoking in Korea. Contents and Methods: Data are gained from the 3rd
Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey(KYRBWS) conduced by the Korea Center for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) in 2007. Student smoking is dichotomized to measure non-smoking versus
ever smoking. School environmental characteristics include culture and organizational structures of the
school. Multi-level logistic regression analysis is used to identify school environmental factors, with simultaneous adjustment of individual, family, and peer factors.
Contribution: When the school level risk factors are identified as an independent risk factor of adolescent
smoking, this finding will be a useful resource for school smoking policies in Korea. The study will be able to suggest that individual- and school-level characteristics should be simultaneously considered in understanding adolescent smoking and other unhealthy behaviors.
