目的:本研究探討大學運動員生活壓力、電子煙知覺風險和成癮認知與電子煙使用行為之關係。方法:透過網路問卷平台Qualtrics以滾雪球的抽樣方式,邀請現役大學公開組運動員填答包含生活壓力、電子煙知覺風險、電子煙使用行為等題項之問卷,回收有效問卷448份。58.5%為生理男性,主攻運動項目為棒球(12.7%)、田徑(12.3%)及籃球(11.2%)。結果:以二元邏輯斯迴歸分析,顯示生活壓力的八個面向與電子煙使用行為無顯著關係;大學運動員認為電子煙較不易成癮時,越有可能使用電子煙。另外,以聚光燈分析發現電子煙知覺風險在人際關係壓力及運動傷害壓力對電子煙使用行為之間的關係具有調節效果。大學運動員覺得電子煙的有害風險較少時,人際關係與運動傷害壓力升高時,使用電子煙的機率也會跟著提高。結論:本研究從生活壓力、電子煙知覺風險與成癮認知來討論運動員電子煙使用行為,發現運動員對電子煙知覺風險程度與人際關係及運動傷害壓力程度連動;成癮認知則會直接影響電子煙使用行為。建議應提供大學運動員電子煙使用風險與成癮相關知識,才能避免電子煙對健康可能造成的危害。
Purpose: This study aimed to explore the relationship of college athletes' life stress, e-cigarette perceived risk, and e-cigarette usage. Method: Using snowball sampling via internet survey plate form Qualtrics, questionnaires were distributed to current college athletes containing items measuring life stress, life stress, e-cigarette perceived risk, and e-cigarette usage. A total of 448 usable responses were collected with 58.5% participants were male athletes. In terms of sport activities, 12.7% were baseball, 12.3% were track and field, and 11.2% were basketball. Results: Binary logistic regression showed that college athletes' life stress had no significant relationship with e-cigarette usage, and perceived less addictive was highly related to the likelihood of using e-cigarette. Additionally, spotlight analysis indicated that perceived risk of e-cigarette moderated the relationship between e-cigarette usage and life stress (i.e. interpersonal relationships and sports injury). Conclusion: College athletes' e-cigarette usage is highly related to the perception of e-cigarette being less addictive. Although overall college athletes' life stress does not relate to e-cigarette usage, high level of stress from interpersonal relationships and injuries with low e-cigarette perceived risk may lead to higher possibility of e-cigarette usage. Knowledge regarding e-cigarette risk and addiction should be provided to college athletes to avoid possible harm.
