    Family Structure, Education and Cigarette Smoking of the * Adults in China: a Double-Hurdle Model Xiaohua Yu Ph.D. Candidate Agricultural, Environmental & Regional Economics and Demography Penn State University 308 Armsby Building University Park, PA 16802 Phone: +1.814.863.8248 Email: [email protected] David Abler Professor Agricultural, Environmental & Regional Economics and Demography Penn State University 207 Armsby Building University Park, PA 16802 Email: [email protected] * The first draft of this paper was presented in the seminar of the School of Finance at Renmin University of China in July 2007, and many thanks go to the seminar attendees, particularly to Professor G. Zhao of Economics of Renmin University of China, for their constructive advice. 1 Abstract : This paper suggests that cigarette smoking process can be divided into two steps: participation decision and consumption decision. Only a person decides to participate in cigarette smoking, can a positive number of cigarette consumption be observed. Following this logic, a double-hurdle statistic model is suggested for estimating the cigarette consumption, which also gives an approach to dealing with the problem of zero observations for non-smokers. Using 2004 China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS), this study rejects the independence of the two decisions. The main finding is that family members can affect the participation decision of smoking but can not affect the consumption. In particular, those residing with parents, particularly with single parents, and those divorced are more likely to participate in smoking. And educational level can affect both participation decision and consumption decision, and the relation between education and cigarette addiction is more likely to be an inverted-U shape rather than a negative or positive linear relation.

  • Scientific Report
    PROJECT NUMBER: 103330-009 Scientific Report Direct and Indirect Tobacco Advertisement, Sponsorship and Promotion in Four Cities of China This study was carried out with the aid of a grant from Research for International Tobacco Control (RITC) of the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) and the financial support of the Canadian Tobacco Control Research Initiative, the American Cancer Society, and Cancer Research-UK. 1 1. Background Tobacco advertisement, promotion and sponsorship are the leading means that the tobacco industry uses to compete for market share and increase demand for and consumption of its products. As research indicates, tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship not only encourage smokers to continue smoking, but also seduce large numbers of non-smokers into the deadly habit, in particular, luring young people and women to start smoking. If one were to compare smoking to a contagious disease, tobacco advertisement, promotion and sponsorship would be the vectors of transmission, which are to be blamed for the increased smoking rate and disease burden. To reduce the health hazards of tobacco use, restricting and even banning the vectors of transmission are crucial. As a result, a comprehensive ban on tobacco advertisement, promotion and sponsorship is regarded as an essential provision in the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO/FCTC). On November 10, 2003, the Chinese government officially signed the WHO/FCTC and on August 28, 2005, the 17th meeting of the 10th People’s Congress’s Standing Committee considered and approved the Convention, making China the 89th country to ratify it. The Convention has provided a legal framework for global control of the harms of tobacco, and collective protection of the health of all human beings.

  • Docket No. FDA-2018-N-0529 Illicit Trade in Tobacco Products After
    Center for Tobacco Studies School of Public Health Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey 112 Paterson Street New Brunswick, NJ 08901 Marin Kurti, MA Instructor Department of Social and Behavioral Health Sciences Center for Tobacco Studies Rutgers School of Public Health 112 Paterson Street New Brunswick, NJ 08901 [email protected] July 13, 2018 Division of Dockets Management HFA-305 Food and Drug Administration 5630 Fishers Lane, Room 1061 Rockville, MD 20852 Re: Docket No: FDA-2018-N-0529: Illicit Trade in Tobacco Products after Implementation of an FDA Product Standard The Center for Tobacco Studies (CTS) is pleased to submit this comment to assist the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in their review of the Illicit Trade in Tobacco Products after Implementation of an FDA Product Standard. Since 2000, CTS has worked to promote and elevate research in tobacco use, policy, and marketing for the benefit of peers, practitioners, and policy makers. Our mission is to enhance the evaluation and surveillance of tobacco control as well as industry initiatives and strategies, by conducting research studies, that include primary and secondary data collection and analysis and qualitative and quantitative methods, and to translate and disseminate findings to program planners and policy makers. Our team of researchers, based at the Rutgers School of Public Health in Piscataway, NJ, conducts applied research of high quality, integrity, and innovation. Below we provide evidence that domestic counterfeiting is not a problem in the US and there is limited potential for growth in the context of a new product standard. However, we recommend that the FDA consider the potential for cross border bootlegging (e.g., Canada) and international counterfeiting (e.g., China, Paraguay, etc.) of non-standardized products.
