摘要：Abstract: Cigarette smoking is the strongest modifi able factor, which shortens the life
span and deteriorates the quality of life. It increases the risk of development of cancer,
cardiovascular and respiratory system diseases. The objective of the study was evaluation
of the prevalence of cigarette smoking among the adult population of the Lublin
Region, and investigation of the relationship between nicotinism and respondents’ place
of residence, and other selected socio-economic factors. Data concerning the cigarette
smoking habit was obtained from 3,993 people – 2,447 females and 1,546 males; 23.0%
of respondents in the study were smokers – 35.6% of males and 15.1% of females. The
percentage of male smokers was similar in rural and urban areas. Urban females were
smokers more often than those living in rural areas. A decrease was noted in the difference
which has been observed to-date between the percentage of urban and rural female
smokers. The highest percentage of smokers occurred among the population aged 41–50,
while the lowest – among the youngest and the oldest respondents. The percentage of
smoking farmers was lower than that of respondents performing non-agricultural occupations,
also among rural inhabitants. Those who were occupationally active were smokers
more frequently than those not engaged in occupational activity. The lowest percentage
of smokers was noted among respondents who had the highest education level, while the
highest percentage was observed among those who had vocational education.
