#Mathematicians Explain Why Social Epidemics Spread Faster in Some Countries Than Others Psychologists have puzzled always over why people in Sweden were slower to start smoking and slower to stop.

In January 1964, the U s. Surgeon general Advisory Committee on Smoking and Health published a landmark report warning of the serious health effects of tobacco.

because it kick-started a global campaign to reduce the levels of smoking and the deaths it causes.

the patterns of smoking all over the world have changed dramatically. In the U s.,the numbers of smokers peaked in 1965

While the general pattern of smoking has been similarn increase in numbers followed by a decreasehe rate of change has been dramatically different from one country to another.

In other words, some countries adopted smoking more quickly and stopped smoking more quickly than others. That raises an important question.

These guys have gathered the largest historical data set on smoking ever compiled and study how its prevalence is correlated with the types of societies involved.

Treating smoking like an epidemic in this way finally reveals what going on. They say their results can explain the rate of change of smoking in various industrialized countries.

And they say the crucial difference is the level of individualism in each society. Perhaps the most extreme difference in smoking patterns come from the U s

So the Swedes adopted smoking more slowly, peaked later, and then stopped smoking at a slower rate than people in America.

And yet the Swedes had access to the same data about the dangers of smoking at more or less the same time.

Sweden was much slower to adopt smoking and much slower to stop. Now Lang and co think they know why.

The model reveals why Sweden stopped smoking more slowly. ur model suggests that social inertia will inhibit decisions to stop smoking more strongly in collectivistic societies than in individualistic societies,

the social freedoms in individualistic societies allow anybody to make a decision to stop smoking more easily.

That will be crucial for the way that governments design strategies to help people stop smoking. nterventions designed to discourage smoking should be tailored diferently in societies or social groups
