Abstract

L'article présente la prévalence des types de la dépendance de la nicotine chez les fumeurs actuels et les ex-fumeurs et définit l'influence des variables sociodémographiques sur la distribution du degré de la dépendance. Les données ont été obtenues au moyen d'un questionnaire d'enquête expédié par la poste à la population randomisée (de 25 à 64 ans) de la grande ville polonaise (Łódź). Cette étude (OMS-CINDI 1996) a révélé que 46,3^ de fumeurs réguliers représentent une dépendance forte de la nicotine alors que chez les ex-fumeurs la proportion correspondante est de 10,8%. Il a été constaté que les variables comme sexe, âge et éducation n'exercent aucune influence sur la distribution du degré de dépendance. Les personnes qui ont cessé de fumer représentent und dépendance faible, et une durée de tabagisme inférieure à 16 ans. Les résultats de cette étude montrent que la prévalence de la dépendance forte au tabac des fumeurs réguliers en Pologne est supérieure à celle de CINDI. Copyright Birkhäuser Verlag 2000
