  • Title: Cigarette and smokeless tobacco use among Connecticut adolescents.
    Author: Kegeles SS, Burleson JA, Miozza J.
    Journal: Am J Public Health; 1989 Oct; 79(10):1413-4. PubMed ID: 2782515.
    Abstract:
    Despite data that the rate of boys' cigarette use has declined nationwide, boys' total tobacco use may actually have remained high because of their substantial use of smokeless tobacco. We surveyed anonymously a random sample of entire classes of grade 7-12 boys and girls from 59 Connecticut towns concerning tobacco use. Despite girls' higher daily cigarette use, boys' total daily tobacco use was higher than that of girls in grades 7-9, and only slightly lower in grades 10-12.
