Abstract

Abstract

Objective To understand the attitude of college students in Zhejiang towards e-cigarette and its influencing factors, so as to provide basis for making prevention and control strategies. Methods In September 2020, 10 colleges and universities in Zhejiang Province were selected to conduct an online survey by a combination of typical sampling method and convenience sampling method. A multivariable Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors. Results Among 884 subjects, 93 (10.52%) were positive about e-cigarettes, 310 (35.07%) thought e-cigarettes were harmless, 252 (28.51%) thought e-cigarettes were not addictive and 67 (7.58%) of respondents were using e-cigarettes. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that gender, grade, cost of living, whether or not smoking e-cigarettes were harmful to college students' attitudes towards e-cigarettes(OR=0.59, 0.47, 1.87, 0.34, 0.54, P < 0.05). Conclusion College students in Zhejiang Province have a positive attitude towards electronics and are not active in avoiding the dangers of smoking. To make full use of the work of concentrated trainees in tobacco control, efforts should be made to break the positive image of e-cigarettes. Junior college students should be the prioritized population for intervention, and female students should not be neglected.
