  • Title: Parental prompts as risk factors for adolescent trial smoking: results of a prospective cohort study.
    Author: Woodruff SI, Laniado-Laborín R, Candelaria JI, Villaseñor A, Sallis JF.
    Journal: Addict Behav; 2004 Dec; 29(9):1869-73. PubMed ID: 15530731.
    Abstract:
    Our earlier cross-sectional research suggested that smoking parents, particularly Latino parents, engage in behaviors that may prompt their children to smoke (e.g., request their child to start the parent's cigarette in his/her own mouth). This prospective study of 478 adolescent never-smokers, mostly Latino, suggests that parental prompts to smoke were not significantly related to smoking initiation among adolescents over a 1-year period.
