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.

Percentages are weighted to population characteristics. Data are not available if it did not meet BRFSS stability requirements.For more information on these requirements, as well as risk factors and calculated variables, see the Technical Documents and Survey Data for a specific year - http://www.cdc.gov/brfss/annual_data/annual_data.htm.Recommended citation: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The 2011 BRFSS data reflects a change in weighting methodology (raking) and the addition of cell phone only respondents. Shifts in observed prevalence from 2010 to 2011 for BRFSS measures will likely reflect the new methods of measuring risk factors, rather than true trends in risk-factor prevalence. A break in trend lines after 2010 is used to reflect this change in methodolgy. Percentages are weighted to population characteristics. Data are not available if it did not meet BRFSS stability requirements.For more information on these requirements, as well as risk factors and calculated variables, see the Technical Documents and Survey Data for a specific year - http://www.cdc.gov/brfss/annual_data/annual_data.htm.Recommended citation: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

BackgroundChronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), mainly caused by cigarette smoking, is one of the leading causes of death in the United States (US) and frequent asthma attacks are often exacerbated by cigarette use. Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) are often used to quit cigarette smoking. Prevalence of COPD, asthma, cigarette use, and e-cigarette use differs between racial/ethnic groups. The overall objective was to assess the associations between e-cigarette use and COPD and asthma and how race/ethnicity and cigarette smoking modifies these associations.MethodsData were retrieved from the 2016–2018 and 2020–2021 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System datasets, a national annual health survey representing the US general adult population. Frequency and weighted percentages or means and standard deviations were obtained. Rao-Scott Chi-square test, two-sample t tests, and logistic regression were used to evaluate binary associations between current e-cigarette use and lifetime diagnosis of COPD and asthma. Multivariable analyses using logistic regression were conducted to assess associations between variables. Interaction effects between e-cigarette use and race/ethnicity were assessed and stratified analyses were performed as indicated. All multivariate analyses were stratified by cigarette smoking status.ResultsPrevalence of e-cigarette use was 5.1%, COPD was 6.7%, and asthma was 9.2%. Individuals who currently smoked cigarettes among all racial/ethnic groups, excluding non-Hispanic (NH) American Indian/Alaska Native individuals, were more likely to report current asthma if using e-cigarettes compared to non-use (p

About this dataset

This dataset, provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) through the State Tobacco Activities Tracking and Evaluation (STATE) System, contains information on state-level legislative data on tobacco use prevention and control policies related to e-cigarette taxes. It captures various measures of state excise taxes for e-cigarettes implemented over a span of almost two decades. The STATE System stores comprehensive historical data which can be used to track changes in these policies at the state level over time. This dataset includes fields such as location abbreviations, topic descriptions, measure descriptions, provision value, provision description, citations and more that provide valuable insight into understanding how these measures have evolved overtime across states in the US

How to use the dataset

This dataset contains information on state-level legislative data on tobacco use prevention and control policies related to e-cigarette taxes from 1995-2016. It includes the following columns: location abbreviations, location descriptions, topic descriptions, measure descriptions, data sources, provision group descriptions, provision descriptions, provision values, citations for the provisions cited in the dataset as well as alternative values for those provisions if they are used. Additionally it contains dates when certain provisions become effective or enacted and also geographic locations of the data which can be used as a helpful reference point.

In order to best use this dataset you should familiarize yourself with its columns and their definitions. This will help you better understand how each element relates to others within the set and give you an idea of what type of analyses can be conducted using it. You should also take note of any relevant comments that may shed light on specific elements or provide additional information not captured in other columns. After understanding the contents of this dataset it is suggested that individuals analyze it according to their individual needs and interests but some general uses may include exploring trends in e-cigarette taxation over time by examining yearly changes in tax rates or seeing how tax regulation varies among states depending on location abbreviations provided in each row entry etc.. With these tools one could potentially make meaningful connections between different variables within this set and gain valuable insights into how US states legislate taxes related to tobacco use prevention methods

Research Ideas

• Analyzing the impact of e-cigarette taxes on usage rates in different states, in order to inform tax policy decisions.
• Examining the differences between enacted and effective dates for legislations by state and across the country, in order to gain a better understanding of how long it takes for new laws to become implemented.
• Tracking changes of e-cigarette regulation over time and studying how they correlate with measures such as number of youth users or youth perception on risk associated with e-cigarettes by state

In 2023, around 28.6 percent of the population aged 15 years and above in Indonesia were smokers. Smoking prevalence in Indonesia peaked in 2018 at 32.2 percent. To address the widespread prevalence of smoking, the government imposed a tax hike in 2020. Cigarette consumption in Indonesia Despite the Indonesian government's increase in excise duties on cigarettes and tobacco products, smoking among adults remains high, particularly among men. Cultural norms, low prices, and aggressive tobacco marketing significantly challenge efforts to reduce smoking rates. In Indonesia, smoking is deeply embedded in social practices and often begins at a young age. Recent data indicates that Indonesians aged 18 to 59 smoke an average of 12 cigarettes daily, equivalent to one regular-sized pack of cigarettes sold in the country. Tobacco industry in Indonesia The tobacco industry in Indonesia is a vital economic sector, ranking among the world’s leading producers and consumers of tobacco. Indonesia produced over 200,000 metric tons of tobacco annually, with exports to countries such as the Philippines and the United States. This extensive production and export network underscores the industry's importance to Indonesia's economy. The total export value of tobacco and its manufactured products from Indonesia is estimated to be nearly two billion U.S. dollars, highlighting its significant contribution to the nation's economic landscape.
