Tobacco involvement among US youth was investigated in a national survey conducted in 2005-2007 of 2,274 respondents aged 14-21, including those not in school. Logistic regressions predicted tobacco involvement. Males had higher rates of tobacco use than females, but males and females had equal rates of heavy use and dependence. Tobacco involvement increased with age. Whites were more tobacco involved than minorities. Tobacco involvement declined with increasing socioeconomic status. Reduced tobacco use was associated with being married and with being a student. Smokeless tobacco use was associated with being male, older, white, and lower socioeconomic status. The implications of these results are discussed.
在美国，2005-2007 年对 2274 名年龄在 14-21 岁的受访者（包括未在校学生）进行了一项全国性调查，研究了美国青少年的烟草使用情况。逻辑回归预测了烟草的使用情况。男性的烟草使用率高于女性，但男性和女性的重度使用和依赖率相等。烟草的使用随着年龄的增长而增加。白人比少数民族更易受到烟草的影响。随着社会经济地位的提高，烟草的使用减少。减少烟草使用与已婚和学生身份有关。使用无烟烟草与男性、年龄较大、白人以及社会经济地位较低有关。讨论了这些结果的意义。
