Abstract
Smoking behavior, particularly among young fathers, has become a worldwide concern. However, men’s smoking behavior with partners is still the subject of limited research. This scoping review analyzes the available information, identifies research gaps, and offers viable future study topics as the first step toward such a synthesis. The purpose of this study was to identify factors of reasons for smoking and reasons for quitting smoking in young fathers. Systematic searches for published, empirical studies with an explicit goal were conducted in two databases: google scholar and PubMed; frequent searches for published empirical research with an express purpose were done. The PRISMA flowchart depicted fifty-seven (2004-2021) relevant studies. The results identified the reason to continue smoking, reason for smoking cessation, father’s role in smoking cessation, and masculine influence on smoking cessation. In conclusion, smoking is one of the stress management efforts when this is the point of a father, whether to continue smoking to reduce stress or decide to stop smoking for family health reasons. This scoping review contributes to furthering gender focus on males and health promotion programs in preventive non-communicable disease attributes from tobacco seen from a social context.
