Summary:Highlights • Female Indigenous youths had higher rates of smoking than male youths over time. • Problem behavior theory guides us to identify predictors of smoking status. • Generalized estimating equation model was used to investigate longitudinal predictors of smoking status. • Family warmth and support was negatively associated with occasional smoking. • Frequent smoking was associated positively with depression symptoms and negatively with positive school activity.
