[Changes in the pattern of cigarette smoking in Poland 1976-1986].
The work was to define changes in the structure of tobacco smoking over 1976-1986 in representative samples of Polish population and changes in the public opinion on the role of smoking in the development of cancer respiratory system. It was found a 4% decline in the total number of smokers which was caused by a slump in number of smoking men. Despite the fact that women were more frequently convinced of causative relation between tobacco smoking and cancer of respiratory system, the percentage of female smokers has increased. This particularly applies to women with university-level education and the "white collars". It is, thus, advisable to design new methods and ways for health education that would allow for psychological and lifestyle factors associated with the smoking habit of Polish women.
