Materials and Methods: Data collected by questionnaire including 30 question. We applied the questionnaire to 1509 current smokers, and ex-smokers who quitted smoking after the law. SPSS packet programme was used for analyses. Results: Participants consisted of 419 (28.0%) female, 1090 (72.0%) male with an average age of 33.6 +/- 10.5 years. Although 80% of them knew that passive smoking is harmful to non-smokers, rate of smoking at home and in the car were very high. 869 (58.0%) of participants supported the law. 87 (5.8%) smokers quitted smoking after the law, 316 (20.9%) reduced. While health problems (37.3%) were the most frequent reason for quitting, restriction of smoking area had the most effect to reduce (54.2%). Conclusion: We satisfied that; the new tobacco law encouraged smokers to quit smoking. In addition, the majority of smokers supported the law. | en_US |
