Several economic studies have evaluated the effects of cigarette smoking and quitting on other health behaviors such as alcohol use and weight gain. However, there is little research that evaluates the effects of cigarette quitting during pregnancy on other health behaviors such as caloric intake, alcohol consumption, multivitamin use, and caffeine intake. In this paper, we evaluate these effects and employ a genetic variant that predicts cigarette quitting to aid in identification. We find some evidence that cigarette quitting during pregnancy may increase multivitamin use and caloric intake and reduce caffeine consumption.
多项经济学研究评估了吸烟及戒烟对其他健康行为的影响,如饮酒和体重增加。然而,很少有研究评估孕期戒烟对其他健康行为的影响,如热量摄入、饮酒、服用多种维生素和咖啡因摄入。在本文中,我们评估了这些影响,并采用一种预测戒烟的基因变异来辅助识别。我们发现一些证据表明,孕期戒烟可能会增加多种维生素的使用和热量摄入,并减少咖啡因的消耗。
