Resumen:	Objective: To determine the predisposition to use roll-your-own (RYO) cigarettes and the beliefs about RYO cigarettes of all the students of 3°-4° of ESO during the years 2016-17 and 2018-19. A cross-sectional study. Setting: Bisaura High School from Sant Quirze de Besora. Primary Health Care in the Catalan Health Institute, Catalunya, Spain. Participants: 111 3rd and 4th of ESO (14-16 years). Main measurements: Dependent variables used were future intentions of smoking and beliefs regarding RYO cigarettes. Independent variables were sex, course and ever smoked. The prevalence of the different dependent variables was described and compared according to the different independent variables with Pearson's Khi-square test. Results: 26. 6% of the adolescents intended to smoke in the future of which 17. 4% intended to smoke RYO cigarettes and 13. 8% manufactured cigarettes (MC). Around 30% of adolescents express at least one wrong belief regarding RYO cigarettes. For example, the 26. 7% believed that smoking RYO cigarettes generated less addiction than MC and the 32. 1% that was less harmful. Those who had smoked at some time in their life had a greater intention to smoke in the future (54. 5%), to smoke MC (27. 3%) and RYO cigarettes (40. 9%) than those who had never smoked (7. 7%, 4. 6% and 1. 5% respectively) (p < 0. 005). Some misconceptions differed depending on whether adolescents had ever smoked in life, sex and course. The boys believed that smoking RYO cigarettes was more natural than smoking MC (p < 0. 005). Conclusions: Educational activities to improve the information that young people have regarding RYO cigarettes are needed.
