2014, Preventive MedicineCitation Excerpt :For example, according to the 2005/6 HBSC report (WHO, 2008b), the prevalence of daily smoking among 15-year olds ranged from 5.7% (Swedish boys) to 53.6% (Greek girls), while the average age of smoking initiation among 15-year olds ranged from 10.7 (Lithuanian boys) to 14.0 (Greek and Israeli girls) (WHO, 2008b). The second type of research is analytic, usually based on cross-sectional (Chen and Unger, 1999; Gritz et al., 1998) or longitudinal data (O'Loughlin et al., 2009; Wahlgren et al., 1997). The primary goal is to understand factors associated with smoking behavior.
