We examined the relationship between state-level tobacco control expenditures and youth smoking prevalence and cigarette consumption.
We estimated a 2-part model of cigarette demand using data from the 1991 through 2000 nationally representative surveys of 8th-, 10th-, and 12th-grade students as part of the Monitoring the Future project.
We found that real per capita expenditures on tobacco control had a negative and significant impact on youth smoking prevalence and on the average number of cigarettes smoked by smokers.
Had states represented by the Monitoring the Future sample and the District of Columbia spent the minimum amount of money recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the prevalence of smoking among youths would have been between 3.3% and 13.5% lower than the rate we observed over this period.
我们研究了州级烟草控制支出与青少年吸烟率及卷烟消费之间的关系。
我们使用1991年至2000年全国代表性的八年级、十年级和十二年级学生调查数据,作为“未来监测”项目的一部分,估计了一个两部分的卷烟需求模型。
我们发现,人均烟草控制实际支出对青少年吸烟率和吸烟者平均吸烟量有负面且显著的影响。
以“未来监测”样本所代表的州以及哥伦比亚特区为例,如果它们按照疾病控制与预防中心建议的最低金额支出,青少年吸烟率将比我们在此期间观察到的比率低3.3%至13.5%。
