Exposure to secondhand smoke among school-goingadolescents in Malaysia: Results from the National Health andMorbidity Survey (NHMS) 2022: Adolescent Health Survey (AHS)
Parental characteristics, sociodemographic characteristics, and SHS exposure are strongly correlated. In addition, there is evidence of smoking displacement to the house from other areas by parents/guardians. This study offers a fresh perspective on how these variables influence the likelihood of SHS exposure for Malaysian school-age teenagers. More efforts should focus on parental variables and sociodemographic traits, especially parental smoking cessation support.
