Methods This cross-sectional study took place in eight high schools in Jakarta, Indonesia. A total of 767 students were recruited by multistage cluster random sampling. Bivariate and multivariate statistical analyses were employed to determine the associations between sociodemographic, predisposing, reinforcing and enabling factors and e-cigarette use. Results Respondents were 54.1% male and the mean age was 16 years old [standard deviation (SD): 1.02]. In this sample, 32.2% of students (n = 247) had ever used e-cigarettes and 11.8% of students were e-cigarette users (n = 90). Several measured factors were positively associated with e-cigarette use, including: current smoking of conventional cigarettes [odds ratio (OR): 2.06]; perception that e-cigarettes are less addictive than conventional cigarettes (OR: 1.98); perception that e-cigarettes do not cause cancer (OR: 2.38); parental acceptance of e-cigarette use (OR: 3.80); and having enough money to buy e-cigarettes (OR: 3.24). The only variable found that was negatively associated with e-cigarette use was teacher’s use of e-cigarettes (OR: 0.34). Conclusions This study found that student social influences, perceptions about and accessibility to e-cigarettes were significantly positively associated with e-cigarette use among high school students in Jakarta, Indonesia. This study highlights the importance of educating students, their parents and teachers regarding safety and potential health hazards of using e-cigarettes. Efforts to implement and enforce youth access restrictions on e-cigarettes in Indonesia are crucial to preventing further uptake of these products. type: Article type: PeerReviewed format: text language: en identifier: http://repository.uhamka.ac.id/id/eprint/826/1/Determinants%20of%20e-cigarette%20use%20among%20a%20sample%20of%20high%20school%20students%20in%20Jakarta%2C%20Indonesia%20_%20International%20Journal%20of%20Adolescent%20Medicine%20and%20Health.pdf identifier: Bigwanto, Mouhamad dan Nurmansyah, Mochamad Iqbal dan Orlan, Elizabeth dan Farradika, Yoli dan Purnama, Tri Bayu Determinants of e-cigarette use among a sample of high school students in Jakarta, Indonesia.
