Characteristics of Socio-economic Context of the Development Tobacco Addiction of Students

In this paper we discuss tobacco addiction, one of the major risk factors for human health integrity. The purpose of the research was to identify relationships between tobacco dependence and demographic factors that influence individual and contextual dependent behavior. We chose to examine a total of 664 students who are occasional smokers. The research method is based on a questionnaire survey. The statistical procedures used were frequency analysis, comparisons between the two groups and application of association tests. Differences between the two groups are influenced by the socio-economic and cultural environment of origin.
