Description

Introduction: Tobacco use poses a serious threat to global health. The tobacco epidemic is
spreading in low- and middle-income countries, where the tobacco industries mainly target
young people and women.
Objective: This study aims to determine the predictors of tobacco use based on the Theory
of Planned Behavior (TPB) in female high school students.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 340 female high
school students aged 14-18 in Rasht City, Iran, who were selected using a multi-stage
sampling method. The data collection tool was the TPB questionnaire for tobacco use in

Persian. The obtained data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test, Kolmogorov-
Smirnov test, Spearman correlation test and logistic regression analysis.

Results: The TPB constructs of attitude (OR=0.91, 95%CI: 0.85-0.97, P=0.007) and behavioral
intention (OR=0.75, 95%CI; 0.64-0.88, P=0.001) could predict cigarette smoking. Also,
constructs of perceived behavioral control (OR=0.92, 95%CI; 0.87-0.97, P=0.007), subjective
norms (OR=0.83, 95%CI; 0.70-0.97, P=0.02), and behavioral intention (OR=0.88, 95% CI; 0.78
-0.99, P=0.03) could predict hookah smoking in girls students.
Conclusion: Considering the predictive power of the TPB constructs in tobacco use by adolescent
girls, it is possible to plan to reduce its rate in this group by a focus on the TPB constructs.
