As shown in Table 2, statistically significant relationships in the three measurements were found (X 2 = 37.78, p<.001 for wave 1; X 2 = 121.68, p<.001 for wave 2; X 2 = 224.13, ...

... for wave 3). As in the case of risk sexual behavior, more male students than female students used tobacco while the proportion of women who reported not having used tobacco on these measurements was higher than that of men (see Table 2).
