Analisis Determinan Yang Berhubungan Dengan Penggunaan Rokok Elektrik (Vape) Serta Dampaknya Terhadap Kesehatan Dan Sosial Generasi

Abstract

The use of vape is increasingly popular among Generation Z, because it is considered a safer option than traditional cigarettes, making vape increasingly popular among young people. Although e-cigarettes are considered safer, research shows that vape can have negative impacts on the physical, psychological, and social health of Generation Z. This study aims to identify factors that influence vape use among Generation Z and explore the possible impacts of vape use, both in terms of health, psychological, and social aspects. The method used in this study is a literature review, where researchers conduct an in-depth analysis of information from various sources, including books, encyclopedias, and other documents to collect theories and ideas that are relevant to the research objectives. The results of the literature review show that social factors, such as the influence of friends and social media platforms, have a major impact on the tendency to use vape among Generation Z. In addition, there are also negative impacts that arise, such as respiratory disorders for physical health, and mental health problems for psychological aspects. Thus, vape use in Generation Z is influenced by various factors, especially social factors, and can have serious impacts on physical health, psychological health, and social impacts. Therefore, it is crucial to raise awareness and implement stricter policies to reduce serious negative impacts.
