Journal of American College Health, v49 n5 p213-19 Mar 2001
Surveyed African American college students regarding cigarette use magnitude, risk factors, and predictors. Over half had smoked at least once, and 9.3 percent were lifetime smokers. More women than men smoked. For trial smoking, predictors were current residence, parent smoking status, and friends' smoking. For lifetime smoking, race/ethnicity, marital status, parental smoking, friends' smoking, and spirituality were predictors. (SM)
