Cigarettes, Electronic cigarettes, VapingAbstract
Vaping behavior has become a new habit among teenagers today. Teenagers, specifically high school students or the equivalent, have become the target of electronic cigarette manufacturers. Aggressive promotions on digital media make this silent promotion highly influential on teenagers. This research aims to identify the factors influencing vaping behavior among adolescents. This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach. Informants consisted of 20 students and 10 teachers from a Madrasah Aliyah (Islamic senior high school) in Jambi City. Data was collected through in-depth interviews and observation. Informants were selected using the purposive sampling method, and interviews were conducted within the school environment. Data analysis followed the Miles and Huberman technique. Most schools already have a smoke-free area policy. Efforts are made through raids on students for the use of both conventional and electronic cigarettes. Peers play a significant role in the vaping behavior of school children. The lack of school action regarding violations against e-cigarettes allows some students to vape on school grounds. Education about e-cigarettes is still severely lacking, both from the school and other stakeholders. Warnings about smoking are only in the form of advisories and do not carry strict sanctions. The fact that some teachers smoke is also a factor in students smoking at school. Factors causing students to vape include peer pressure, the lack of severe sanctions when caught smoking at school, the presence of teacher role models who smoke, and the variety of flavors offered by e-cigarettes.
