Three Reasons Students smoke for pleasure. Students’ smoking habits may be tied to a person’s family history. Smoking may depend of student age and knowledge.

Mission Statement Smoking has a negative, positive or neutral impact on the success of students. Our analysis will assist us in planning and implementing smoking intervention programs for Cal State San Marcos. Programs may be helpful in preventing the habit of tobacco use in school. Help us take action in making an effort to inform the council and promote a lesser degree of smoking on campus. Our group would like to determine whether or not smoking on campus is decreasing or increasing and why that is so. To properly evaluate the extensiveness of a student smoker’s habits and the level of success a student has accomplished.

Would you date a person who is smoker? YES NO Do you smoke tobacco? YES NO If YES, how many times do you smoke a day? 1-3 times 4-6 times 7-9 times >10 times How long have you been smoking? 10 years Thank you for your help on this research project! It is greatly appreciated!

Related Information Causes for Smoking. Time of day (cigarettes/day) Duration of smoking Family History of smoking Student smoking percentage number of student smokers Given the nature and the student lifestyle, we expect 17% of our surveyed sample to be smokers. Proceed in our research by surveying 105 students on campus to operate as a sample for the standard population of the school.

Background Information/Factors Health risks (first and second hand) Cancer susceptibility based on time spent on campus in direct connection with smoking Comparing and contrasting smoker comfort versus non-smoker discomfort Non-smokers hidden annoyances toward smoking Smoker’s Nonsmokers awareness of nonsmokers smokers Determining possible reasons for smoking (stress, habit, social conformity?)

Conclusion There is no correlation between smoker and non-smoker Based on our data, mean for smokers has a lower GPA compare to non-smokers Although our data revealed a low percentage of smokers within a 105 person population as a group based on this result we conclude the percentage of smoking amongst the campus population is relatively low.
51
Suggestion Make smoker-free campus. Switch the smoking designated area - General Lots - (Lots J, K, L, N, O, X, Y, and Z ). Promote non- smoking habit by encouraging students.
