摘要
The "healthy immigrant effect'' may apply to lifestyle-related behaviors in immigrant children. In a cross-sectional study of 1,959 children aged 9-12 years, the number of years lived in Canada was related to an increased risk of smoking among immigrant children. Interventions may be needed for immigrant children to prevent the adoption of unhealthy behaviors prevalent in their new host environments. (C) 2010 Society for Adolescent Medicine.
