Tobacco usage is a first subscriber to deceases from persistent and chronic diseases. There are 10 Filipinos who die every hr due to the wellness hazards caused by coffin nail smoke. In malice of the Torahs forbiding coffin nail advertizements. a figure of immature tobacco users have continued to turn. It appears to be upseting that tobacco users tend to be acquiring younger. Harmonizing to Everett ( 2002 ) of the Office on Smoking and Health National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. bulk of pupils aged 16 old ages and older ( 60. 4 % ) reported to hold smoked a whole coffin nail. and 11. 1 % initiated smoke at the age 10 or younger. Furthermore. age of smoking induction was significantly related to current frequent smoke. day-to-day smoke and whether pupils had of all time smoked daily. A younger age of smoking induction was associated with smoking more coffin nails per twenty-four hours that was originating at an older age.
Many surveies had been already conducted with respects to cigarette smoke. Exposure to cigarette advertisement and holding a comrade who smoked was prognostic of current smoke position ( G. Botvin. Goldberg. Botvin & A ; Dusenbury. 1993 ) .
Adolescents with high exposure to cigarette advertisement were significantly to be tobacco users. Students who live in families with tobacco users were more likely to smoke. but parental disapproval of smoke was associated with a lower smoke rate ( Martini & A ; Sulistyowati. 2004 ) . In add-on. harmonizing to Da Silva Pinto and Aparecida Ribeiro ( 2007 ) . the undermentioned factors were related with smoking induction and current smoke: wonder. presence of tobacco users as societal contacts. non being praised for non smoking. and comprehending oneself as holding hapless or mean scholastic public presentation. With respects to scholastic public presentation specifically. the consequence showed that the pupils who reported norm or below mean scholastic public presentation were more predisposed to the generation and care of the smoke wont. Furthermore. in footings of cognitive province of pupils. it is found that nicotine consumption could increase watchfulness and knowledge. Personality on the other manus besides considers a great forecaster to utilize coffin nail fume. These personality dimensions are extroversion ( E ) . amenity ( A ) . conscientiousness ( C ) . neurosis or deficiency of emotional-stability ( N ) . and openness to Experience ( O ) .

From this background. the research worker wants to find the smoke profile of the respondents and find the degree of emotional intelligence ( self-awareness. self motive. pull offing emotions and empathy ) of CLSU tobacco user pupils.
It besides aims to cognize the important relationship between socio-demographic features ( age. twelvemonth degree. hebdomadal allowance and figure of household members ) and smoking profile ( age when smoke started. figure of coffin nail per twenty-four hours. money spend for smoke ( day-to-day ) . trade name of coffin nail. beginning of coffin nail. activities while smoking. topographic points where smoke. tempers that triggers smoking. clip of smoke. comrades when smoke. figure of sibling who smoke. parents who smoke. figure Of friends who smoke and their grounds of smoking ) of the CLSU tobacco user pupils in footings of their emotional intelligence occur. It besides aims to cognize the important relationship between difference in gender. academic position and beginnings of coffin nails of the CLSU tobacco user pupils in footings of their emotional intelligence exists.

Factors that decreased the chance of surcease were nicotine dependance and low instruction ( N. Breslau and E. L. Peterson. 1996 ) .
