Merokok adalah praktik yang sangat umum di kalangan masyarakat Indonesia, dan ini termasuk remaja dan dewasa muda. Ada banyak penelitian yang menyatakan bahwa merokok memberikan berbagai efek samping terhadap tubuh, termasuk masalah jiwa seperti kecemasan. Penelitian saya adalah untuk menemukan hubungan antara merokok dan kecemasan di kalangan mahasiswa Fakultas Teknik UGM. Subyek penelitian ini diambil di kalangan mahasiswa Fakultas Teknik karena Fakultas Teknik terdiri dari lebih banyak mahasiswa laki-laki berbanding mahasiswa perempuan. Menurut berbagai penelitian, mayoritas dari perokok itu terdiri dari laki-laki. Oleh itu lebih mudah untuk menemukan perokok di Fakultas Teknik karena jumlah yang lebih tinggi dari siswa laki-laki.
