    Journal: J Public Health Manag Pract; 2005; 11(4):346-50. PubMed ID: 15958935.
    Abstract:
    To examine the predictors of attitudes toward a smoking ban in vehicles, a computer-assisted telephone interview was conducted for a representative sample of Indiana adult residents using the random-digit-dialing method. Less than one third of the total respondents favored a smoking ban for car drivers and passengers, whereas about two thirds favored the smoking ban in public places. Fifty-four percent and 63 percent of nonsmokers opposed the smoking ban for car drivers and passengers, respectively. Religiosity was a significant predictor for attitudes toward a smoking ban for both drivers and passengers when controlling for other predictors, including smoking status, employment status, and age group. Gender, income group, and race/ethnicity were insignificant.
