Titel: Hur får ungdomar tillgång till tobak? – En kvantitativstudie bland ungdomar i Halland

Författare: Sandra Mellberg & Linda Vigren

Sektion: Sektionen för Hälsa och Samhälle

Sidantal: 13

Nyckelord: Röka vattenpipa, rökning, snusning, tillgång till tobak, ungdomar.

Sammanfattning:  Syftet med studien var att beskriva hur ungdomar i åldrarna 14- 16 år får tillgång till tobak. Metoden var kvantitativ med enkät som datainsamlingsinstrument. Studien var en tvärsnittsstudie. Över hälften av de undersökta ungdomarna visste hur de skulle kunna få tag i tobak på ett enkelt sätt. Vanligast var det att ungdomar fick tobak från äldre eller jämnåriga kompisar. Studien visade dessutom att en tredjedel av de undersökta eleverna hade provat att röka vattenpipa. Studien bidrar till att ge en bild över hur lätt eller svårt ungdomar själva upplever att det är att få tag på tobak. Fortsatt forskning kan inrikta sig på att studera attityder hos de personer som köper ut eller säljer tobak till minderåriga. Tobaksanvändning bland ungdomar är fortfarande ett problem i Sverige.
