   摘要
   目的：这项研究使用纵向出生队列研究来调查大五人格特质，双亲的社会等级，母亲孕期的吸烟状况，童年的认知能力，教育和职业以及吸烟之间的联系。
   方法：研究共纳入17415例于1958年出生于英国的婴儿，在他们11岁，33岁，50岁时进行随访，了解他们终生的吸烟状况（曾经吸烟/从未吸烟）以及在50岁时当下的吸烟状况（是/否）是研究分别衡量的两个结果。
   结果：逻辑回归分析显示在5840例有完整数据的参与者中，母亲的吸烟状况，学历和所有的大五人格特质均是成人终生吸烟的显著预测因子；学历，自我职业水平，外向性的特质，责任心和率直是当前吸烟状况的显著预测因子。在一生中男人比女人的吸烟率更高(52.1%的男人和 49.2% 的女人)。然而，一旦把童年和成人期的一套社会经济以及心理变量考虑进去后，这种性别对终生吸烟的影响就会不再显著。
   结论：学历和大五人格特质与当前以及终生的吸烟状况均有显著的联系。

Abstract
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the associations between the Big-Five personality traits, parental social class, maternal smoking status during pregnancy, childhood cognitive ability, education and occupation, and tobacco use in a longitudinal birth cohort study.
METHOD:17,415 babies born in Great Britain in 1958 and followed up at 11, 33, and 50 years of age. Lifelong tobacco use status (ever/never) and current tobacco use status (yes/no) at age 50 years were the outcome measures respectively.
RESULTS:Logistic regression analyses showed that among the 5,840 participants with complete data, whilst maternal smoking status, educational qualifications, and all the big-5 personality traits were significant predictors of adult lifelong tobacco use; educational qualifications, own occupational levels, traits Extraversion, Conscientiousness, and Openness were significant predictors of current smoking status. In lifelong measure men tended to have a greater rate of tobacco use than women (52.1% in men and 49.2% in women). However, the sex effect on lifelong tobacco use ceased to be significant once a set of socio-economic and psychological variables in childhood and adulthood were taken into account.
CONCLUSION:Educational qualifications and the Big-Five personality traits were significantly associated with both current and lifelong tobacco use status.
