Research was conducted to determine the knowledge, attitudes and practice(KAP)of smoking among students of Tokyo Metropolitan University of Health Sciences. Students were categorized as ever-smoker or nonsmoker;and ever-smokers were further cat-egorized as ever-smoker(100 cigarettes or more)and ever-smoker(less than 100 cigarettes), current smoker and ex-smoker. Ever-smokers and nonsmokers were then compared to determine significant differences in health knowledge, perceptions of smoking, attitudes towards tobacco control education, policy and other measures, and smoking practice. Although, in the area of health knowledge, no significant differences were found between the two categories, concerning smoking-related perceptions and attitudes, significant differences emerged. Further research is needed in determining the factors or influences that shape these contrasting perceptions and attitudes. Such information will be of assistance in formu-lating appropriate tobacco control measures for the future.
