Abstract
Under the epidemic rising of tobacco consumption among working-aged people worldwide, there is little Russian detailed data on prevalence and particularities of active and passive tobacco smoking among adolescents. The present 4-stage study involved schoolchildren and students of trade schools (13 to 18 years of age) at Chapaevsk, which is a large industry center of Samara region. The prevalence of tobacco smoking among these adolescents was as high as 28 %. The average age of starting smoking was 14.7 ± 0.4 yrs. A significant effect of tobacco smoking on airway aerodynamics and low motivation for quitting the smoking were found. The most of adolescents had low nicotine dependence but were poorly motivated for smoking cessation and highly influenced by the social surroundings to re-start smoking. The majority of adolescents renewed smoking after return to habitual social conditions.
