Other questions ask about smoking habits, accessibility, smoking habits of their family members and friends; as well as exposure to pro / anti cigarette promotions and their thoughts about tobacco control measures. The results of this study have some important policy implications. First, the results indicate that price is an important factor that affects students' probability of smoke significantly. Second, it is also found that the knowledge about the harmful effects of smoking decreases both the probability of smoking and tobacco consumption significantly.

Fourth, if smoking is not allowed inside the school building, the students have a lower probability of smoking. 2013-03-28T17:00:45Z 2013-03-28T17:00:45Z 2012-01 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2012/01/16338305/turkey-econometric-analysis-youth-smoking-behavior-turkey http://hdl.handle.net/10986/13032 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Social Analysis Economic & Sector Work Europe and Central Asia Turkey |

The report is organized as follows. The
information about the Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS) is
provided in the first part. The second part gives some
descriptive statistics about the prevalence rate of students
and their consumption based on several characteristics
observed in the survey. The third part presents the
empirical model and the variables used to estimate the
probability of smoke and the quantity consumed. The fourth
part presents the empirical results obtained from the
analysis. The last part summarizes the results and concludes
the paper with some policy recommendations. A total of 202
schools and 15,957 students were surveyed in the analysis.
The GYTS questionnaire asks about the general
characteristics of students, such as age, grade, sex, income
level, region, and their family whether their parents work,
and their education levels. Other questions ask about
smoking habits, accessibility, smoking habits of their
family members and friends; as well as exposure to pro /
anti cigarette promotions and their thoughts about tobacco
control measures. The results of this study have some
important policy implications. First, the results indicate
that price is an important factor that affects
students' probability of smoke significantly. Second,
it is also found that the knowledge about the harmful
effects of smoking decreases both the probability of smoking
and tobacco consumption significantly. Third, those students
that have difficulty in getting tobacco products from
markets are less likely to smoke and they smoke less
cigarettes. Fourth, if smoking is not allowed inside the
school building, the students have a lower probability of smoking. |
