Wangi-Wangi and South district Wangi-Wangi, Wakatobi Regency. Method:

0.048), and friend smoking behavior (?Value = 0.010) is significantly correlated
with smoking behavior of high school students, GeoDa spatial regression test
shows that the distance of cigarette retailers (p = 0.00922), friend’s smoking
behavior (p = 0.00204) and parents’ smoking behavior (p = 0.03181) had a
spatial relationship with smoking behavior. Moran’s Index is in the range of 0
<I ? 1 indicating positive spatial autocorrelation. Conclusions: There is a spatial
