International Journal of Public Health Science (IJPHS)
In Indonesia, the prevalence of adolescence smokers is high. The situation might be worse during the epidemiological transition. This study aimed to estimate the sociodemographic factors related to tobacco use (light, moderate, and heavy) among adolescent in school age in Indonesia. This cross-sectional study used the raw data from the secondary data of Indonesia Global Youth of Tobacco Survey (GYTS), 2019. This study only included the 9,992 adolescent smokers in school age as the sample. School was selected based on the proportional probability based on the number of students. The class was selected by random sampling method and the students in that class were eligible to join the survey. This current study only selected those who smoked at the time of survey. The univariate, bivariate (Chi-square and t-test), and multivariate (ordinal logistic regression) has been tested in this study. The prevalence of tobacco uses among adolescent in Indonesia in 2019 was 19.2%. The determinants...
Tobacco Consumption Among Young Population in Rural Indonesia: Prevalence and Associated Factors
Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2022
BACKGROUND: Tobacco consumption among youths is increasing in Indonesia and other middle-income countries. In rural areas, its prevalence is even higher compared to urban settings. Understanding the extent and associated factors of tobacco consumption within this population are essential to inform the formulation of appropriate prevention and control strategies. AIM: This study aims at analyzing the prevalence and associated factors of tobacco consumption among the young population living in rural Indonesia. METHODS: Data were obtained from Indonesia Family Life Survey wave 5 (IFLS-5). Two thousand seven hundred and eighty-six (2786) responses from respondents aged 15-24 years and living in rural areas were analyzed. Binary logistic regression was used to examine the association between tobacco consumption with the predictors. RESULTS: The prevalence of tobacco consumption among youths in rural Indonesia was 26.5%. Binary logistic regression discovered that factors significantly associated with tobacco consumption among young population were aged 20-24 years (AOR = 4.760, 95% CI: 3.557-6.368), less educated (AOR = 5.988, 95% CI: 3.193-11.229), being married (AOR = 2.484, 95% CI: 1.631-3.782), and having smoking parent (AOR = 1.346, 95% CI: 1.016-1.783). Young males had a much higher tobacco use prevalence (57.1%), whereas females had significant negative association with tobacco consumption (AOR = 0.001, 95% CI: 0.000-0.002). CONCLUSION: Many youths in rural Indonesia were identified to have tobacco-use behavior. Appropriate prevention and control strategies are needed to address the population groups identified in this study. Policymakers should anticipate challenges that may occur resulting from geographical and cultural differences.

Introduction: The patterns of smoking addiction or exposure are not same in all places. This study aims to examine the determinants and patterns of current tobacco smoking (CTS) exposure among male and female adults at rural and urban places of residences. Material and methods: Data set selected for this study covers a nationally representative sample of 8,146 respondents extracted from the Global Adult Tobacco (GATS) Survey-2011 Indonesia. The frequency distribution was used to introduce the response variable along with several independent variables with primary information. The chi-square test was executed to find the association between the study variable with different selected variables. In logistic regression, CTS exposure status of adults based on male and female with different places of residence was used as the response variable. Demographic and socioeconomic variables, health knowledge about CTS, attitude and perception of tobacco smoking (TS) restrictions were considered as predictor variables. Results: Aged male adults (above 44 years old) were less exposure and females in all age groups were more exposure to tobacco smoking compared to reference group. Only female respondents who were living with large families of more than five members had higher risk to be exposed to CTS but females were less exposed compared to males in both rural and urban regions. Better education, higher wealth index, better health knowledge and practice of no smoking at home were associated with lower CTS exposure in all types of cases. Conclusions: Prevention and control processes should not be neglected in public health policies. Smoking policy should be implemented and enforced by each parts of Indonesia.

Sample was unmarried adolescent aged 15-24 years with a total of 4,959 adolescents. Association between adolescent smoking behavior status with parental smoking habits, gender, age and residence were determined by using chi-square test. We found that the majority (93%) of adolescents were smokers who smoke a maximum of 10 cigarettes per day and most of them started smoking regularly at the age of 12 to 17 years (66%). Parental smoking habits significantly influenced adolescent smoking behavior (p=0.000; OR=1.397; 95% CI=1.173
Determinants of smoking behaviour among adolescents in Semarang, Indonesia
Tobacco Control, 1999
Objectives-To determine the smoking prevalence and to examine the determinants of smoking behaviour among male adolescents in Semarang, Indonesia. Design-A random sample of schools in Semarang (population 1.5 million) was obtained using a stratified sampling procedure (strata based on type of school and district). A total of 149 schools were selected (response rate 72%). Within the schools 186 classes were selected, targeting the 11, 13, 15, and 17 year olds. An anonymous, self administered questionnaire was filled in by all students present at the day of the survey (total sample size 6276). Outcome measures-Smoking prevalence, exposure to family and peer smoking, and other variables that may be related to smoking. Logistic regression was used to examine the determinants of smoking behaviour. Only male students were included in the analysis. Results-Smoking increased dramatically between the ages of 11 and 17, from 8.2% to 38.7%. The variance explained by the regression model increased from 19.8% for 11 year olds to 53% for 17 year olds. The smoking behaviour of best friends was the most powerful determinant of smoking, and this was consistent across the age groups. Best friends' attitudes towards smoking and older brothers' smoking behaviour were also important determinants of smoking. Conclusions-Smoking prevalence among male adolescents in Semarang, Indonesia is high. EVective smoking prevention programmes should take into account the dominant influence of peers in the onset and maintenance of smoking behaviour. In general, school related items had a less important role in predicting smoking behaviour than expected.

Determinants of smoking behavior among young males in rural Indonesia
International Journal of Adolescent Medicine and Health, 2019
Introduction: A high prevalence of tobacco smoking has been reported among adolescents and young adults, especially men, in lower-middle-income countries such Indonesia. Understanding the extent and determinants of smoking within this population, particularly those living in rural areas where smoking rates are anecdotally higher than in city areas, is essential to inform development of targeted smoking prevention and reduction programs. This study analyzes the prevalence and determinants of smoking behavior among young men in rural Indonesia. Methods: Secondary data analysis of the 2012 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey: Adolescent Reproductive Health (IDHS ARH) were used. Data from 4811 rural males (15-24 years of age) were selected through two-stage stratified cluster sampling techniques. The chi-square (χ 2) test and binary logistic regression were used to determine significant factors associated with tobacco smoking. Results: More than half of this population in rural Indonesia were smokers. Significant factors associated with smoking were: age 20-24 years (odds ratio (OR) 2.8, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.4-3.2), working status (OR = 2.24, 95% CI: 1.95-2.57), low education level (OR = 1.93, 95% CI: 1.52-2.45), access to magazines (OR = 0.78, 95% CI: 0.68-0.89) and access to the radio (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.12-1.48) at least once a week. Conclusions: A significant proportion of adolescents and young men in rural Indonesia smoke tobacco. Exposure to media with likely cigarette advertising (radio and magazines) and access to money via employment in the context of lower socioeconomic and education levels elevate the risk of smoking. While Indonesian government campaigns targeting smoking are in place, further work is required to decrease smoking rates and prevent a future smoking-related health crisis for rural Indonesia's young men.
