Abstract

Background: To associated mental health factors with tobacco-smoking in the last month in scholastic adolescents. 

Methods: An analytic transversal study with 1134 students in the first year of senior studies in a government preparatory school.

For the women suicide ideation, impulsiveness disordered eating, age and tobacco-smoking in friends and brothers. After the logistic regression were associated impulsiveness and tobacco-smoking in friends for both, high self-esteem and age for men, and tobacco-smoking in brothers for women. 

Conclusions: Mental health factors are different for men and women. However, all of them are a reference that tobacco-smoking is associated with the inner world of teens that are meaning differently for men and women.
