During the 1960's the question of influencing people's smoking habits was treated several times in the Norwegian Parliament. Important documents for the justification of a more restrictive policy with respect to the marketing of tobacco products "Påvirkning av røykeadferd", The Norwegian Cancer Society 1967, where the proposal to build an administration that would take care of the work on smoking and health was raised. Report to the Storting nr. 62, 1968-1969, that proposed a ban on cigarette advertising, and Recommandation of the Social Commitee nr. 143, 1969-1970. The National Council on Tobacco and Health was created in 1971, and the same year came "Innstilling til lov om restriktive tiltak ved omsetning av tobakksvarer" (The Tobacco Act), enacted as law nr. 14 og March 9th 1973 and implemented from July 1st 1975.

On behalf of the National Council on Tobacco and Health Statistics Norway has since 1973 conducted smoking habits surveys as an addition to the Labour Force Surveys every 4th quarter. In 1974 and in 1975 the Smoking habits survey was conducted each quarter of the year. The purpose was to obtain information on the status and changes in Norwegian smoking habits, mainly as research material for the National Council on Tobacco and Health. From 1992 to 2004, questions on smoking habits have largely been asked in connection with Statistics Norway's Omnibus Surveys. The Travel and Holiday Surveys is a continuation of the Omnibus Surveys. The main purpose of these surveys is to identify Norwegians' travel habits, and to ensure the collection of other official statistics. Questions about smoking habits are included in these surveys.

This file contains questions about smoking habits asked in connection with the Omnibus Study November 1999.

Abstract

The Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics implemented the Survey of Smoking and Tobacco Consumption, 2021 represents the first specialized survey in Palestine on smoking, the survey based on the Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS). As a household survey of individuals 18 years and above. The topics of the Smoking and Tobacco Consumption Survey cover a wide range of indicators as the prevalence of smoking in Palestine, the basic characteristics of the respondents, tobacco use (smokers and non-smokers), electronic cigarettes use, cessation, second-hand smoke, economics, Media, and knowledge, attitudes and perceptions towards tobacco use, in the Palestinian society

Geographic coverage

The survey is nationally representative and covers three levels: the first is at region level (West Bank, Gaza Strip), locality type (urban, rural, camp) and the center of the main cities (Nablus, Ramallah, Hebron, Gaza).

Analysis unit

All individuals (18 years and above) and living with their households normally in Palestine.

Universe

The survey questionnaire comprised the following parts:

Questionnaire Cover: Includes the identification data and quality control. Part one: Data of households' members and social data. Part two: Includes data related to individuals (18 years and above), and the section covers identification data and characteristics of individuals (18 years and above),

Kind of data

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure

Sample Size The estimated sample size is 9,232 households in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

Sample Design The sample is three stage stratified cluster (pps) sample: First Stage: Selection of a stratified sample of 577 EA with (pps) method. Second Stage: Selection of a systematic random area sample of 16 households from each enumeration area selected in the first stage.

Third Stage: We selected one person in the household of the (18+) age group in a random method using Kish tables, so that the sex of the person chosen by the serial questionnaire number in the sample. If it is an odd number, we select a male household member and if it is an even number, we select a female household member.

Sample Strata The population was divided into the following strata:

1. Governorate (17 Governorates, where Jerusalem was considered as two statistical areas).
2. Locality type (urban, rural, refugee camp).

Mode of data collection

Computer Assisted Personal Interview [capi]

Research instrument

The survey questionnaire comprised the following parts:

· Questionnaire Cover: Includes the identification data and quality control. · Part one: Data of households' members and social data. · Part two: Includes data related to individuals (18 years and above), and the section covers identification data and characteristics of individuals (18 years and above), in addition to: - Tobacco consumption. - Cessation. - Smokeless tobacco consumption. - Exposure to secondhand smoking. - The use of heated tobacco products. - The use of electronic cigarettes. - Water pipe smoking. - Anti-smoking policies. - Expenditure on smoking.

Cleaning operations

1. Concurrently with the data collection process, a weekly check of the data entered was carried out centrally and returned to the field for modification during the data collection phase and follow up. The work was carried out thorough examination of the questions and variables to ensure that all required items are included, and the check of shifts, stops and range was done too.
2. Data processing was conducted after the fieldwork stage, where it was limited to conducting the final inspection and cleaning of the survey databases. Data cleaning and editing stage focused on: · Editing skips and values allowed. · Checking the consistency between different the questions of questionnaire based on logical relationships. · Checking on the basis of relations between certain questions so that a list of non-identical cases was extracted, and reviewed toward identifying the source of the error case by case, where such errors were immediately modified and corrected based on the source of the error with the documentation process for the checks occurred on the questionnaire.
3. The SPSS program was used to extract and modify errors and discrepancies, to prepare clean and accurate data ready for scheduling and publishing.

Response rate

The survey sample consists of about 9,232 households of which 7,763 households completed the interview; whereas 5,049 households from the West Bank and 2,714 households in Gaza Strip. Weights were modified to account for non-response rate. The response rate in the West Bank reached 85.4% while it reached 94.2% in Gaza Strip.

Sampling error estimates

The data accuracy test includes multiple aspects of the survey, the most notably is sampling errors and non-sampling errors which refers to the staff and survey tools, as well as survey response rates and their most important impact on estimates. This section includes the following:

• Sampling Errors Data of this survey are affected by sampling errors due to the use of a sample and not a complete enumeration for the target population. Therefore, certain differences are expected to appear in comparison with the real values obtained through censuses. Variance was calculated for the most important indicators. There is no problem at the level of dissemination of the mentioned estmiates at the national level and the level of governorates for both the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

• Non-Sampling Errors Non-sampling errors are probable in all stages of the project, during data collection or processing. This is referred to as non-response errors, response errors, interviewing errors, and data entry errors. To avoid errors and reduce their effects, great efforts were made to train the fieldworkers intensively. They were trained on how to carry out the interview, what to discuss and what to avoid, through practical and theoretical training during the training course. Also, data entry employees were trained on the entry program that was examined before starting the data entry process. Continuous contacts with the fieldwork team were maintained through regular visits to the field and regular meetings during the different field visits. Problems faced by fieldworkers were discussed to clarify issues and provide relevant instructions.

The implementation of the survey encountered non-response, where the case (household was not present at home) during the fieldwork visit become the high percentage of the non-response cases. The total non-response rate reached 11.7% which is very low once compared to the household surveys conducted by PCBS. The refusal rate reached 4.1% which is relatively low percentage compared to the household surveys conducted by PCBS, and the reason behind that is that the questionnaire was short and the experience of fieldworkers.

This is a source dataset for a Let's Get Healthy California indicator at https://letsgethealthy.ca.gov/. Adult smoking prevalence in California, males and females aged 18+, starting in 2012. Caution must be used when comparing the percentages of smokers over time as the definition of ‘current smoker’ was broadened in 1996, and the survey methods were changed in 2012. Current cigarette smoking is defined as having smoked at least 100 cigarettes in lifetime and now smoking every day or some days. Due to the methodology change in 2012, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend not conducting analyses where estimates from 1984 – 2011 are compared with analyses using the new methodology, beginning in 2012. This includes analyses examining trends and changes over time. (For more information, please see the narrative description.) The California Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) is an on-going telephone survey of randomly selected adults, which collects information on a wide variety of health-related behaviors and preventive health practices related to the leading causes of death and disability such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes and injuries. Data are collected monthly from a random sample of the California population aged 18 years and older. The BRFSS is conducted by Public Health Survey Research Program of California State University, Sacramento under contract from CDPH. The survey has been conducted since 1984 by the California Department of Public Health in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In 2012, the survey methodology of the California BRFSS changed significantly so that the survey would be more representative of the general population. Several changes were implemented: 1) the survey became dual-frame, with both cell and landline random-digit dial components, 2) residents of college housing were eligible to complete the BRFSS, and 3) raking or iterative proportional fitting was used to calculate the survey weights. Due to these changes, estimates from 1984 – 2011 are not comparable to estimates from 2012 and beyond. Center for Disease Control and Policy (CDC) and recommend not conducting analyses where estimates from 1984 – 2011 are compared with analyses using the new methodology, beginning in 2012. This includes analyses examining trends and changes over time.Current cigarette smoking was defined as having smoked at least 100 cigarettes in lifetime and now smoking every day or some days. Prior to 1996, the definition of current cigarettes smoking was having smoked at least 100 cigarettes in lifetime and smoking now.

A survey from the fall of 2024, found that the most used tobacco products among college students in the United States were e-cigarettes or other vape products. At that time, around 76 percent of college students who used tobacco products in the past three months reported they used e-cigarettes or other vape products. The same survey found that among college students who reported ever using a tobacco product, around 25 percent stated they used tobacco daily or almost daily in the past three months, while 28 percent had used just once or twice. What is the most popular kind of tobacco product in the United States? Although e-cigarettes are the most used tobacco product among college students, the most commonly used form of tobacco among U.S. adults is still regular combustible cigarettes. In 2021, around 10 percent of women and 13 percent of men were current cigarette smokers, compared to four percent of women and five percent of men who smoked e-cigarettes. However, e-cigarette use is much more common among younger adults, not just college students. In 2021, around 11 percent of those aged 18 to 24 years used e-cigarettes, while five percent smoked combustible cigarettes. Smoking trends in the United States Smoking in the United States has dramatically decreased over the past few decades. In 1965, it was estimated that around 42 percent of adults in the U.S. smoked, but this number was only about 14 percent in 2019. Nevertheless, as of 2022, almost 29 million people still smoked and are at risk of premature death due to cancer, cardiovascular disease, or stroke, just a few of the risk factors of smoking. The state with the highest percentage of adults who smoke is West Virginia, while Utah has the lowest prevalence of smoking. In 2023, around 20 percent of adults in West Virginia smoked, compared to six percent in Utah.

This dataset contains two data files 1) High school electronic smoking device use and 2) High school tobacco use. Tobacco use is defined as having used either cigarettes, little cigars or cigarillos, cigars, kreteks (clove cigars), hookah, electronic smoking devices (e.g. e-cigarettes, vape pens, pod mods), or smokeless tobacco (e.g. chew, dip, snuff, snus). See the individual file description for more information on each data file.

The California Student Tobacco Survey (CSTS) is an on-going in-school survey of tobacco use among California middle and high school students. The purpose of the survey is to assess the use of, knowledge of, and attitudes toward cigarettes and emerging tobacco products (e.g. e-cigarettes, hookah, cigarillos). The California Tobacco Control Program coordinates statewide tobacco control efforts and funds the California Student Tobacco Survey (CSTS).

This is a source dataset for a Let's Get Healthy California indicator at https://letsgethealthy.ca.gov/. The California Tobacco Control Program coordinates statewide tobacco control efforts and funds the California Student Tobacco Survey (CSTS). The data table shows the current smoking prevalence from 2001-2002 to 2015-2016 for California high school youth by selected demographics. Current cigarette smoking was defined as having smoked on one or more days during the past 30 days prior to the survey. In statistics, a confidence interval is a measure of the reliability of an estimate. It is a type of interval estimate of a population parameter. The CSTS is a large-scale biennial survey, in-school student survey administered to middle (grades 8) and high school (grades 10 and 12) students. Topics of the survey include awareness of and use of different tobacco products; history and patterns of tobacco use; tobacco purchasing patterns; knowledge and participation in school tobacco prevention or cessation programs; perceptions of tobacco use (i.e. social norms); awareness of advertising; and susceptibility to future tobacco use.

This statistic shows the results of a survey on smoking habits, conducted in the United States from 2005 to 2015. The survey was conducted in July of each year, except for 2009, when it was conducted in June. In 2013, 80 percent of respondents in the United States said they had not smoked any cigarettes in the past week, while 19 percent stated they had.

Smoking in the United States

The percentage of smokers has decreased from 25 percent in 2005 to 19 percent in 2015, with total cigarette consumption also decreasing, reaching peak consumption back in 1980. This goes along with the fact that 80 percent of Americans believe that smoking is actually very harmful to the people who smoke. Yet, the number of adult smokers who still currently smoke is still close to 40 million in the United States. Of the people that still smoke, 72 percent consider themselves to be addicted whereas only 27 percent believe otherwise.

Even though the number of smokers seems high, the United States is near the bottom of a list of countries showing the share of the population who smoke on a daily basis compared to other countries around the world. Greece and Indonesia are at the top, closely followed by Latvia.

The general understanding that smoking is bad for your health has generated another way of smoking in the United States which is particularly popular amongst young adults – e-smoking. E-cigarettes run on batteries and have a cartridge that contains nicotine in a solution, which when smoked, heats the liquid, causing it to evaporate. In the past few years, e-cigarette use tripled in schools, surpassing regular cigarettes. When adults were questioned as to their motivations to try e-smoking, 47 percent responded that it was because of family and friends, while 39 percent said that it was the ability to be able to smoke inside.

The Current Population Survey Tobacco Use Supplement data collection from January 2015 is comprised of responses from two sets of survey questionnaires, the basic Current Population Survey (CPS) and a Tobacco Use Supplement (TUS) survey. The TUS 2014-2015 Wave consists of three collections: July 2014, January 2015, and May 2015. The CPS, administered monthly, is the source of the official government statistics on employment and unemployment. From time to time, additional questions are included on health, education, and previous work experience. The Tobacco Use Supplement to the CPS is a National Cancer Institute sponsored survey of tobacco use that has been administered as part of the US Census Bureau's CPS approximately every 3-4 years since 1992-1993. Similar to other CPS supplements, the Tobacco Use Supplement was designed for both proxy and self-respondents. All CPS household members age 18 and older who completed CPS core items in January 2015 were eligible for the supplement items. A new feature for the 2014-2015 cycle included random selection of self-interviewed respondents in larger households to reduce respondent burden. If the household had only 1 supplement eligible member then that person was selected for self-interview. If the household had only 2 supplement eligible members, then both of them were selected for self-interview. If the household had 3 or 4 supplement eligible members, then 2 of them were randomly selected for self-interview and the remaining were interviewed by proxy. If the household had more than 4 supplement eligible members, then 3 of them were randomly selected for self-interview and the rest of the eligible respondents were interviewed by proxy. Those selected for self-interview were eligible for the entire supplement, whereas proxy respondents were only eligible for an abbreviated interview. Occasionally, those persons to be interviewed by proxy, if available for self- interview, were interviewed directly but asked the abbreviated proxy path questions. Both proxy and self-respondents were asked about their smoking status and the use of other tobacco products. For self-respondents only, different questions were asked depending on their tobacco use status: for former/current smokers, questions were asked about type of cigarettes smoked, measures of addiction, attempts to quit smoking, methods and treatments used to quit smoking, and if they were planning to quit in the future. All self-respondents were asked about smoking policy at their work place and their attitudes towards smoking in different locations. Demographic information within this collection includes age, sex, race, Hispanic origin, marital status, veteran status, immigration status, educational background, employment status, occupation, and income.

In 1989, the Health Education Authority (HEA) launched its Teenage Smoking Campaign, which aimed to discourage young people from taking up smoking and to encourage existing smokers to stop. The HEA commissioned eight tracking surveys of children's attitudes to smoking between 1989 and 1994 to evaluate their campaign. In 1996, the Department of Health launched a new campaign - Respect. The Respect campaign seeks to address the reasons why young people start to smoke and to destabilise the fashionable perceptions of smoking. It seeks to make non-smoking part of a positive lifestyle which is relevant for both smokers and non-smokers. The 1996 Teenage Smoking Attitudes (TSA) survey, the first in a series of three annual surveys, was designed to help evaluate the campaign and look more generally at children's attitudes and beliefs about smoking and their knowledge of health issues. Two further surveys were carried out in 1997 and 1998.
Since 1982, the Social Survey Division of ONS has also carried out a biennial series of surveys of smoking among secondary school children for the Department of Health (the 'Smoking, Drinking and Drug Use Among Young Teenagers' series (formerly 'Smoking Among Secondary Schoolchildren', held at the Archive under GN:33263). Since these surveys and the Teenage Smoking Attitudes surveys target the same population of 11-15 year olds in England, the HEA and the Department of Health decided to investigate whether it was possible to make the two surveys complementary to each other. Further to these investigations, the same sampling design was then used on both surveys, and they contained a group of the same core questions. The two surveys, however, have maintained different focuses. The Department of Health surveys remain the official source of smoking prevalence data for 11-15 year olds, whereas the emphasis of the HEA surveys was on finding out what people believe about smoking, their attitudes to smoking and their awareness of health education issues.

The 1997 Teenage Smoking Attitudes (TSA) survey was the second of three annual surveys. It focused in particular on cigarette dependency and children's awareness of smoking related articles, promotions and advertising in the media.
Respondents also gave saliva specimens which were later analysed for evidence of cotinine - a major metabolite of nicotine. This was carried out in order to estimate the prevalence of smoking. Pupils were made fully aware of the purpose of the procedure. The 1997 survey was the first in the series where saliva samples were collected. For further details, please see documentation.
Main Topics:

The following topics were covered in the 1997 survey:
smoking prevalence, age first smoked cigarette, brand of cigarette smoked, giving up smoking, parental smoking behaviour, attitudes towards smoking and smokers, recollection of health education at school and in the media, recollection of smoking related items in the printed media, social and educational factors, cigarette consumption, siblings smoking behaviour, cigarette dependency, physiological effects of smoking and giving up smoking, cigarette company promotions.

Abstract

The Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS) is a school-based survey designed to enhance the capacity of countries to monitor tobacco use among youth and to guide the implementation and evaluation of tobacco prevention and control programmes. The information generated from the GYTS can be used to stimulate the development of tobacco control programmes and can serve as a means to assess progress in meeting programme goals. In addition, GYTS data can be used to monitor seven Articles in the WHO FCTC.

Documentation

Please visit GTSSData that houses and displays data from four tobacco-related surveys conducted around the world, including India.

Methodology

In December 1998, TFI convened a meeting in Geneva with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), the World Bank and representatives from countries in each of the six WHO regions to discuss the need for standardized mechanisms to collect youth tobacco use information on a global basis. The outcome of this meeting was the development by WHO and CDC of a Global Tobacco Surveillance System, which uses the Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS) as its data collection mechanism.

The GYTS uses a standard methodology for constructing the sampling frame, selecting schools and classes, preparing questionnaires, following consistent field procedures, and using consistent data management procedures for data processing and analysis.

GYTS is composed of 56 "core" questions designed to gather data on the following seven domains. The questionnaire also allows countries to insert their own country-specific questions.

• Knowledge and attitudes of young people towards cigarette smoking
• Prevalence of cigarette smoking and other tobacco use among young people
• Role of the media and advertising in young people’s use of cigarettes
• Access to cigarettes
• Tobacco-related school curriculum
• Environmental tobacco smoke (ETS)
• Cessation of cigarette smoking

The Canadian Tobacco Use Monitoring Survey (CTUMS) was conducted by Statistics Canada from February to June 2007 with the cooperation and support of Health Canada. Statistics Canada has conducted smoking surveys on an ad hoc basis on behalf of Health Canada since the 1960s. These surveys have been done as supplements to the Canadian Labour Force Survey and as random digit dialing telephone surveys. In February 1994, a change in legislation was passed which allowed a reduction in cigarette taxes. Since there was no survey data from immediately before this legislative change, it was difficult for Health Canada or other interested analysts to measure exactly the impact of the change. As Health Canada wants to be able to monitor the consequences of legislative changes and anti-smoking policies on smoking behaviour, the Canadian Tobacco Use Monitoring Survey (CTUMS) was designed to provide Health Canada and its partners/stakeholders with continual and reliable data on tobacco use and related issues. Since 1999, two CTUMS files have been released every year: a file with data collected from February to June and a file with the July to December data. Additionally, there is also a yearly summary. The present file covers the period from February to June 2007. The primary objective of the survey is to provide a continuous supply of smoking prevalence data against which changes in prevalence can be monitored. This objective differs from that of the National Population Health Survey (NPHS) which collects smoking data from a longitudinal sample to measure which individuals are changing their smoking behaviour, the possible factors which contribute to change, and the possible risk factors related to starting smoking and smoking duration. Because the NPHS collects data every two years and releases the data about a year after completing the collection cycle, it does not meet Health Canada's need for continuous coverage in time, rapid delivery of data, or sufficient detail of the most at-risk populations, namely 15 to 24 year olds. The Canadian Tobacco Use Monitoring Survey allows Health Canada to look at smoking prevalence by province-sex-age group, for age groups 15 to 19, 20 to 24, 25 to 34, 35 to 44 and 45 and over, on a semiannual and annual basis. Data will continue to be collected on an on-going basis depending on availability of funds.

Weighted least squares sample estimates and 95% confidence intervals of ever and past 30-day smoking for 18 to 21 year old respondents by survey modality, gender and race/ethnicity for six U.S. national surveys.

Abstract

The objective of the 2005 National Tobacco Prevalence Survey was to access and report the consumption of tobacco products in order to evaluate any potential adverse

effects resulting from the sales, production and advertisement of tobacco products within the national Cambodian population. A specific aim of the survey was to evaluate tobacco consumption of tobacco products then previously performed.

Geographic coverage

The sample was designed to provide estimates of the indicators at the national level, for urban and rural areas, and for 12 individual provinces: Banteay Mean Chey, Kampong Cham, Kampong Chhnang, Kampong Spueu, Kampong Thum, Kandal, Kaoh Kong, Phnom Penh, Prey Veaeng, Pousat, Svay Rieng, and Takaev and for the following 5 groups of provinces:

I. Bat Dambang and Krong Pailin

II. Kampot, Krong Preah Sihanouk, and Krong Kaeb

III. Kracheh, Preah Vihear, and Stueng Traeng

IV. Mondol Kiri and Rotanak Kiri

V. Otdar Mean Chey and Siem Reab.

Analysis unit

1. Individuals

2. Household

Universe

The study covered all members of resident households in Cambodia.

Kind of data

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure

The sample population was representative of 12 individual provinces and five groups of provinces. The sample population was stratified in three stages. Initially, the whole sample population was divided by domain: urban and rural then by other criteria. All potential participants from each selected household were interviewed. In consideration of sampling techniques and the sample size (about 13,988 eligible participants 18 years of age and older), this survey report is considered a nationally representative survey of tobacco use among the general populations within the Royal

Cambodian Kingdom (Please see external resources of Sampling Design and Sample Size in PDF format).

Mode of data collection

Face-to-face [f2f]

Research instrument

Two main questionnaires were canvassed for this survey. Form 1 (Listing of Households), Form 2 (Core Questionnaire)

1. Form 1 was filled up for the listing of households in every sample village (or segment of sample village) only.

2. Form 2 contains about 103 items including demographic characteristics, tobacco use, knowledge and attitudes about tobacco use, exposure to second hand smoke, smoking cessation activities, lifestyle habits, exposure to tobacco media advertisements, and other miscellaneous questions. Information was collected from sample households within sample village (or segment of sample village).

The contents of the Form 1 (Listing of Household) and Form 2 (Core Questionnaire) may be indicated by the following list of items of information to be collected for each sample village through the questionnaires:

I. Face Page

II. Demographic characteristics such as age, gender, marital status, ethnicity,

     literacy, education, occupation, and income (question number 1-19)

III. Tobacco use

· Women's health (question number 97-98)

· Children in the Household

VIII. Media (question number 99-102)

IX. Miscellaneous questions (question number 103)

Cleaning operations

Manual processing of questionnaires verified status of completeness, correctness, and consistency of the data entries. The coding classification of Occupations and

Industries was used and were developed for the Cambodian National Tobacco Survey. The coding and classification scheme were based on the UN International Standard Occupations Classification (ISOC) and UN International Standard Industrial Classification (ISIC) systems, respectively. Manual editing and coding were performed by four persons (one supervisor and three processors) all of them from NIS. They participated in editing and coding of many surveys conducted by NIS.

Response rate

The end result of all interviewing yielded a 97% percent response rate.

Sampling error estimates

Substantial differences (sampling error of > 10%) results in the addition of sample points and subjects on a per domain basis until the comparability with current national data is achieved

Smoking is more prevalent among Millennials (44 percent), followed by Generation X consumers (36 percent). Meanwhile, the trend of cigarette smoking is less common among the youngest consumers in our survey, as some 29 percent of Gen Z respondents fall into this category.This is according to the exclusive results from the Statista Consumer Insights.

The statistic displays the results of a survey concerning smoking behavior in Belgium in 2022. The survey results show that as of 2022, a sizable share of consumers surveyed in Belgium had never smoked tobacco. Roughly 43 percent of people surveyed indicated that they had never smoked, while a third of respondents indicated that they used to smoke, but had stopped at the time of the survey.

2005-2011. The World Health Organization, CDC, and the Canadian Public Health Association, developed the GHPSS to collect data on tobacco use and cessation counseling among health professional students in all WHO member states. GHPSS is a standardized school-based survey of third-year students pursuing advanced degrees in dentistry, medicine, nursing, or pharmacy. It is conducted in schools during regular class sessions. GHPSS follows an anonymous, self-administered format for data collection. GHPSS uses a core questionnaire on demographics, prevalence of cigarette smoking and other tobacco use, knowledge and attitudes about tobacco use, exposure to secondhand smoke, desire for smoking cessation, and training received regarding patient counseling on smoking cessation techniques. Questionnaires are translated into local languages as needed. GHPSS has a standardized methodology for selecting participating schools and classes and uniform data processing procedures.

This report contains results from the latest survey of secondary school pupils in England in years 7 to 11 (mostly aged 11 to 15), focusing on smoking, drinking and drug use. It covers a range of topics including prevalence, habits, attitudes, and wellbeing. In 2023 the survey was administered online for the first time, instead of paper-based surveys as in previous years. This move online also meant that completion of the survey could be managed through teacher-led sessions, rather than being conducted by external interviewers. The 2023 survey also introduced additional questions relating to pupils wellbeing. These included how often the pupil felt lonely, felt left out and that they had no-one to talk to. Results of analysis covering these questions have been presented within parts of the report and associated data tables. The report includes this summary report showing key findings, excel tables with more detailed outcomes, technical appendices and a data quality statement. An anonymised record level file of the underlying data on which users can carry out their own analysis will be made available via the UK Data Service in early 2025 (see link below).

This survey tracks changes in smoking status, especially for populations most at risk such as the 15- to 24-year-olds. It allows Health Canada to estimate smoking prevalence for the 15- to 24-year-old and the 25-and-older groups by province and by gender on a semi-annual basis.
