“…The participants chose one of five descriptors of family income levels: low, low-middle, middle, middle-high, and high income. Current smoking and drinking were determined using the question ‘During the past 30 days, on how many days did you smoke cigarettes/drink alcohol?’ [ 14 ]. Those who responded ‘more than one day’ were classified as current smokers and drinkers.…”

OBJECTIVES:We examined the associations between happiness and a wide range of health behaviors in South Korean adolescents.METHODS:Study data were derived from the ninth Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey administered from June to July 2013. In addition to happiness levels, the questionnaire included items on sociodemographics and health-related lifestyle factors (smoking, drinking, eating breakfast, fruit and vegetable consumption, physical activity, sedentary behavior, and hours of sleep).RESULTS:The multivariate analysis revealed that higher levels of happiness were associated with not smoking or drinking, eating breakfast, eating fruits daily, vegetable consumption, participating in at least 60 minutes of physical activity a day, avoiding sedentary behavior, and hours of sleep. Additionally, sex differences were found in relationships between happiness and eating fruit daily, participation in physical activity, and sedentary behavior.CONCLUSIONS:These results encourage public health professionals to consider the psychological aspects of adolescent life in working to improve their health behaviors and outcomes.

“…A study conducted in Taiwan did not consider the effect of nicotine addiction on successful quitting [29]. Lim et al showed the insignificant association between nicotine dependence and smoking relapse (HR = 1.13; 96% CI = 0.88-1.46) [22].…”

“…Furthermore, the prevalence might be higher than that reported from a national questionnaire survey regarding the gap between the biologically verified prevalence and the urine cotinine analysis [21]. Because adolescent tobacco use is usually considered to be a delinquent behavior to be corrected rather than an addictive behavior to be supported, some adolescent smokers could be reluctant to report their tobacco use [22]. The Nationwide Quitline in Korea (hereafter referred to as Quitline) was launched as a national cessation program in 2006 and suggested as an appropriate channel to support the quitting attempts of adolescents considering the anonymity and accessibility of the service.…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of additional motivational enhancement through telephone-based counseling on short- and long-term smoking abstinence among Korean adolescents. Methods: A comparative retrospective study was conducted based on the longitudinal follow up in Quitline from 2010 to 2017. A total of 533 and 178 adolescent smokers voluntarily participated in the 1-year quitting counseling only (group A, who were ready to quit) and the additional 4-week motivational interviewing before 1-year quitting counseling (group B, who were ambivalent about quitting), respectively. The outcomes were self-reported continuous abstinence at 30-day, 6-month, and 1-year follow up. Logistic regression was applied to estimate the effect of potential factors, including motivational enhancement, on cessation outcome. Results: At baseline, adolescents in group B had a lower motivation to quit than those in group A (p < 0.001). The successful quit rates at 30-day, 6-month, and 1-year follow up were 37.2%, 12.8%, and 11.4% in group A and 33.7%, 15.2%, and 11.2% in group B, respectively. After adjusting factors as appropriate, successful quit rates in group B were not significantly different from the rates in group A. Higher self-efficacy increased the successful quit rate at 30-day, 6-month, and 1-year follow up, similar in subgroup analysis by gender. Never-drinking showed significant association with 30-day successful quit in the whole population and among boys. The lower number of smoking triggers was associated with an increased 30-day successful quit rate among boys only. Conclusions: Counseling for motivational enhancement could be a promising approach for better quitting outcomes. Improving self-efficacy and eliminating smoking triggers should be continuously strengthened during the quitting process.

“…These variables include age, gender, educational level, age of onset of daily smoking, friends' smoking behavior, selfefficacy, motivation, alcohol consumption, and marijuana use, as measured in the pre-treatment questionnaire (Breslau & Peterson, 1996;Ellickson, Tucker, & Klein, 2001;Engels, Knibbe, de Vries, & Drop, 1998;Lim et al, 2012;Otten, Bricker, Liu, Comstock, & Peterson, 2011;Paavola, Vartiainen, & Puska, 2001). Only gender was found to be associated with treatment group assignment (Table 1).…”
