520 $a The purpose of the study was to investigate the prevalence rate and to identify the predictive ability of six factors (socioeconomic status, family, peer, personality, academic performance, and perceptions of betel nut chewing factors) to adolescents' betel nutchewing behavior in Taitung County, Taiwan, R.O.C.
520 $a The survey instrument, in a closed-end format, consisted of three parts, the Betel Nut Chewing Behavior Questionnaire (21 items), Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (10 items), and Nowicki-Strickland Locus of Control Scale (40 items). The data were collected via group self-reported administration to 843 subjects during the 1994-1995 academic year.
520 $a The results indicated that the prevalence rate of betel nut chewing behavior among ninth-grade students in Taitung was very high. More than half (51%) of the total sample had chewed betel nut. Separately, 71.8% of Aborigine, 40% of Chinese, 61.1% of males, and 40.2% of females had chewed betel nut.
520 $a The three strongest predictors of the six factors: family factors, peer factors, and personality factors (with the explained variance being 29.7%, 38.7%, and 25.3% for the total sample) were analyzed by using stepwise multiple regression. The total explanatory power was very strong and explained 51.6% of the variance of adolescents' betel nut chewing behavior. The strongest predictor in these six factors was "number of best friends chewing betel nut" for the total sample.
520 $a Culture diversity could explain the difference of prevalence and predictors of substance using behavior. Further studies were also recommended to approach better understanding of the adolescents' betel nut chewing behavior in Taiwan, R.O.C.
