title: Prevalence of all types of tobacco use in the state of Ohio.
abstract: Since 1962, cigarette smoking has received a tremendous amount of attention while other forms of tobacco use have not. This survey attempted to determine the prevalence of all forms of tobacco use in Ohio. A randomized statewide telephone poll of 941 persons was conducted to determine the statewide prevalence of cigarette smoking, cigar smoking, pipe smoking, chewing tobacco use and snuff use. Prevalences of each of these tobacco types are reported as related to age, sex, race and occupation. Prevalences are also reported in terms of adult users to be more comparable to other large scale surveys.
