Abstract

OBJECTIVES

This study assessed smokers' reactions to a 25 cents cigarette tax imposed in Massachusetts.

METHODS

A statewide telephone survey of 1783 adult smokers and 216 teenaged smokers was conducted.

RESULTS

Among adult smokers, 3.5% reported that they had stopped smoking, owing in part to the price increase; 35% had considered quitting and 19% had attempted to cut the cost of smoking by switching to cheaper brands or cutting down. Among teenagers, 21% had considered quitting and 26% had cut costs. Low-income smokers were more responsive to the price increase than more affluent smokers.

CONCLUSIONS

A modest and temporary price increase promoted quitting among adult smokers and reduced cigarette consumption among low-income teenagers.

摘要

目的

本研究评估了吸烟者对马萨诸塞州征收的每支香烟25美分税款的反应。

方法

对该州1783名成年吸烟者和216名青少年吸烟者进行了电话调查。

结果

在成年吸烟者中,3.5%的人报告称他们已戒烟,部分原因是价格上涨;35%的人考虑过戒烟,19%的人曾试图通过改用更便宜的品牌或减少吸烟量来降低吸烟成本。在青少年中,21%的人考虑过戒烟,26%的人削减了成本。低收入吸烟者对价格上涨的反应比富裕吸烟者更敏感。

结论

适度且临时的价格上涨促使成年吸烟者戒烟,并减少了低收入青少年的香烟消费。
