Abstract

BACKGROUND: Smoking is among adults and is also frequently found in young smokers. In the world and Indonesia, the trend of smoking tends to increase and this trend does not only happen in adults but also in adolescents.

AIM: The purpose of this study was to determine the Health Belief Model of smoking behavior as a follow-up of tobacco control policies for junior high school students at SMP Negeri 1 Palu.

METHODS: The type of research was qualitative research with a case study approach. The informants in this study consisted of one key informant (the principal of SMP Negeri 1 Palu), the regular informant (five male students at SMP Negeri 1 Palu), and additional informants (two parents of students of SMP Negeri 1 Palu), the number of informants in this study was eight people. The data were collected through triangulation techniques, such as in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation using interview guidelines.

RESULTS: In the case of medical illness, these dimensions include acceptance of the diagnosis results, personal estimation of the presence of susceptibility (sensitivity), and susceptibility to disease in general (perceived susceptibility). The informant’s statement explained that smoking could increase the seriousness of a disease, especially those who already have a history of previous illness (perceived severity). The benefits of quitting smoking, namely, that life will be healthier, reduce spending much money, and avoid disease (perceived benefits). Perceived barriers are perceived barriers to change or when individuals encounter barriers to taking these actions. A person’s difficulty in quitting smoking is social factors and the surrounding environment. Adolescents seek a sense of comfort and attachment to peers and make adolescents have self-socialization, namely, putting pressure on themselves to adopt behaviors that they think are liked by others.

CONCLUSION: Social and environmental factors have a significant influence on adolescent behavior; this is influenced because they want to join in seeing their friends in doing a smoking behavior, such as wanting to be seen that he can also do this, wanting to look slang in the eyes of his friends, incitement from friends to engage in smoking behavior.
