Abstract		Background. The aim of the study was to establish how much smoking among women correlated with the lung cancer incidence in Slovenia in the years 1963-97 in order to verify our recent prediction of it further increase till the year 2007. Methods. The sources of data were the Archives of the Slovenian Public Opinion Surveys (the answers of 2,811 women to a questionnaire) and the Cancer Registry of Slovenia (data on 3619 lung cancer patients). For our analysis, the SPSS and GLIM programs were used. Results. The results confirm our prediction of a further increase of the female lung cancer incidence in Slovenia. Smoking habits prevailed the most in the generation of women born between 1955 and 1965. The percentage of non-smokers in this generation was only 44%. In younger generations, born around 1975 and 1980, the percentage of non-smokers is higher, however, the smokers started smoking earlier, at 15.8 years of age, on average. In comparison to men, women exsmokers smoked a shorter time, and the majority of them only 10 or less cigarettes per day. Conclusions. Among women in Slovenia, the smoking-rate was never as high as in men, and, on average, they smoked less cigarettes per day. Anti-smoking campaigns obviously had beneficial effects among women, too. However, preventive measures among girls to divert them from starting smoking need to be taken. Programs helping adult smokers to quit smoking should be more actively directed to generations born after 1950
Summary		Izhodišča. Namen raziskave je ugotoviti, v kolikšni meri so v Sloveniji kadilske navade raznih generacij žensk vplivale na trend incidence pljučnega raka v letih 1963-1997, in s tem preveriti, ali je naša napoved, da se bo incidenca pljučnega raka pri ženskah vsaj do leta 2007 še večala, ustrezna. Metode. Gradivo so bili podatki Arhiva družboslovnih podatkov Fakultete za družbene vede v Ljubljani (2811 izprašanih žensk) in Registra raka za Slovenijo (3619 bolnic s pljučnim rakom). Za obdelavo smo uporabili programska paketa SPSS in GLIM. Rezultati. Izsledki potrjujejo našo napoved, da se bo incidenca pljučnega raka pri ženskah, za razliko od moških, v Sloveniji v naslednjih letih še večala. Največ so kadile ženske, rojene med letoma 1955 in 1965. Med njimi je bilo najmanj, le 44%, nekadilk. Odstotek nekadilk med mlajšimi generacijami (do rojenih okoli leta 1980) je sicer večji in 70-80% kadilk navaja le 10 in manj pokajenih cigaret dnevno, vendar so tiste, ki kadijo, pričele s kajenjem mlajše (v povprečju stare 15,8 leta). V primerjavi z moškimi pa so bivše kadilke kadile krajši čas in v največjem odstotku 11-20 cigaret dnevno. Zaključki. Med ženskami v Sloveniji kajenje ni bilo nikoli do take mere razširjeno kot med moškimi. Prvi večji delež kadilk se je pojavil šele med rojenimi po letu 1950. Učinek programov za zdravo življenje v Sloveniji se, kar zadeva opuščanje kajenja, potrjuje tudi med ženskami. Tako kot pri fantih pa so potrebne usmerjene akcije za zmanjšanje števila odraščajočih deklet, ki začnejo kaditi. Programi za opuščanje kajenja so potrebni zlasti med generacijami, rojenimi po letu 1950.
