摘　　要：Background:With about 22 million adult smokers,Bangladesh needs strong measures that would promote smoking cessation.Using data from Wave 2 of the International Tobacco Control(ITC)Survey,this study examined the factors associated with intention to quit smoking among Bangladeshi smokers.Methods:Data from Wave 2 of the International Tobacco Control(ITC)Survey in Bangladesh,a face to face survey of adult smokers,were analysed.In the ITC survey,households were sampled using a stratified multistage design and interviewed using a structured questionnaire.Results:Of the respondents(N=2982),most were male(96%),married(80%),and Muslim(83%);33%were illiterate and 54%were aged below 40.Almost two-thirds were from areas outside Dhaka,78%smoked cigarettes exclusively;and 36%had an intention to quit smoking in the future.This study identified several predictors,comparable to other international studies,of intention to quit smoking:area of residence,number of cigarettes smoked daily,previous quit attempt,visiting a doctor in the past,having child aged 5 or below at home,perceived benefit from quitting,being worried about own health,knowledge of SHS,not enjoying smoking and workplace smoking policy.Conclusions:These findings suggest that the prevalence of intention to quit smoking is lower among Bangladeshi smokers than those among smokers in developed countries.However,the factors relating to quit intentions among Bangladeshi smokers are comparable to those found in Western countries.Population based tobacco control programs and policies should consider these predictors in the design of interventions to increase quitting among smokers in Bangladesh.
