DATA ANALYSIS

14. Shows the number of respondents (students) who have members in their family that smokes in their home
Based on our findings, it can be said that UMP students smoke mostly because of influence from family members which also are smokers.

16. Student started smoking when they were still in primary school
Student started smoking when they were still in primary school. Awareness should be spread by the government not only to secondary schools but also primary schools as well. This can be done by having talks and exhibition on the bad effects of smoking at schools to educate primary students and prevent them from smoking.

18. Of the big gap in the total respondents which do not care about others inhaling from their smoke, awareness should spread among students in the universities to educate them about second hand smoke and its effects which is just as devastating as smoking cigarette itself.

19. Many do not know the health risks and chronic diseases (lung cancer, heart diseases, stroke, erectile dysfunction) that come with smoking.
That’s why government obligate tobacco companies to place pictures of these diseases on every cigarette pack.
Some know about it, but do not buy the hype. The effects are long term, which does not kicks in until later age like 50 years old. They think they are the few lucky ones.

20. Stress comes from many aspects:
Study : eg; Low carrymarks/CGPA, deadlines, presentation
Life: eg; Money, love relationships, pressure from parents, peer pressure

21. Related to previous graph
Related to previous graph . When you’re stress, you find ways to relax yourself.
Shortcut: cigarette, because it can be done anytime and anywhere.
Alternatives : playing sports, reading books, religious
prayers, or as simple as opening up
to someone.

22. CHAPTER 5 – CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
i - Main reason : STRESS!
ii - Other factors: influenced from families and friends.
iii - 27% agree that by smoking cigarette, it can give them relaxation from the
stress and also calm their anger or frustration.
iv - Age started smoking : mostly years old.
v - Students lack knowledge of bad effects from smoking to their health.
vi - They are unaware of the second hand smoke effects, which means they
does not that people around them are exposed to same health risk as
themselves.

23. Limitations of the study :
i - Not enough time.
ii - Some of the respondents gave inappropriate answers.
iii- Not many articles that SPECIFICALLY focus on the study
of smoking among Malaysian university students.
iv - Too many open-ended questions.

24. Suggestions for further study :
i – Try to broaden it, include female respondents.
ii – Improve time management, better use of Gantt Chart.
iii – Innovate and improvise. Skype chatting instead of face to face
meeting, saves time.
iv - Use more close-ended questions.
v – Choose title that has more resources (articles) so that more
convenient.
