Practice Question
A nurse is discussing factors that increase the risk of smoking with a group of adolescents. Which factor stated by the group indicates that effective learning has occurred?
Answer Choices:
Correct Answer:
Struggles with peer pressure
Rationale:
💎 Peer pressure is a well-established risk factor for adolescent smoking, as teens often experiment with tobacco to fit in with peers.
💎 Recognizing social influences shows the adolescents understand one of the major behavioral determinants of smoking.
💎 Test anxiety may contribute to stress but is not a direct risk factor for smoking initiation.
💎 Limiting intake due to preferences or eating daily meals with parents are protective factors, not risks.
💎 Effective health education should ensure adolescents can identify social and environmental risks for tobacco use.
