Abstract

The total number of smokers worldwide is now more than one billion, accounting for about a quarter of the world's population, and tobacco use causes more than five million deaths worldwide each year. While smoking brings people pleasure, the toxic substances produced by the ignition of cigarettes can cause a variety of diseases. The data was collected from each school through a questionnaire and distributed online. For the questionnaire data, this paper uses C5.0 decision tree, chi-square test, logistic regression, and structural equation modeling to investigate the basic situation, causes, and influencing factors of smoking among college students, and to provide useful reference for improving the smoking situation among college students. In this paper, Fujian Medical University, Sunshine College, Fujian Information Vocational and Technical College, Fujian Arts Vocational College, Fujian Early Childhood Teacher's College, Jimei University, Chengyi College of Jimei University, and Jiageng College of Xiamen University were selected as the overall sample.
