Age of initiation of cigarette smoking and smokeless tobacco use among western Alaska Native people: Secondary analysis of the WATCH study
2019, Addictive Behaviors ReportsCitation Excerpt :These generational influences are relevant to developing targeted prevention and public health campaign messaging. Preventing tobacco use or delaying age of when AN children, adolescents, and/or young adults begin using tobacco can reduce the severity of nicotine dependence and tobacco-caused health disparities, as well as enhance the likelihood of successful quitting among those who do become regular smokers (Chassin et al., 2014; DiFranza et al., 2000; Hegmann et al., 1993; Lando et al., 1999; SAMHSA, 2016; Sargent et al., 2017; Soneji et al., 2016; USDHHS, 2012). Broad-based policies and other strategies that focus on prevention of tobacco use may contribute to a reduction in disparities in children's health along with future disparities including high mortality and incidence rates of lung cancer experienced among AN people (Carmack, Schade, Sallison, Provost, & Kelly, 2015; Pierce et al., 2012).

2016, SSM - Population HealthCitation Excerpt :These binary measures (meeting/not meeting the relevant recommendation) were used for investigating clustering using observed-expected ratios; for the LCA, additional categories and a wider range of behaviour measures were used (see Box 2). In addition to current smoking behaviour, age of smoking initiation was used in the LCAs because early smoking initiation is associated with difficulty quitting and longer term use, as well as with heavier smoking (Breslau, Fenn & Peterson,1993; Lando et al., 1999). Analyses were conducted in Stata with the exception of the LCA which was conducted using latentGOLD software version 4.5 (Vermunt & Magidson, 2008).
