  • Data Highlights from the 2017 Hawai'i Youth Tobacco Survey
    JUNE 29, 2018 Data Highlights from the 2017 Hawai'i Youth Tobacco Survey Tobacco Prevention & Control Program Chronic Disease Management & Control Branch Tobacco Settlement Project Hawai'i State Department of Health 2015 & 2017 HYTS compiled by Lance Ching, PhD, MPH; Julia Chosy, PhD; Katherine Benson, BSc, MBA; Ranjani Starr, PhD, MPH 2003, 2005, 2011, & 2013 HYTS compiled by Tonya Lowery St. John, PhD, MPH 2007 & 2009 HYTS compiled by Ann Pobutsky, PhD 2000 HYTS compiled by Lila Johnson, MPH Overview The Hawaii Youth Tobacco Survey (HYTS) is a module of the Hawaii School Health Survey administered to public school students in grades 6-12 throughout Hawaii in odd-numbered years. This report presents a summary of the results from 2017. Data can be explored in more detail, including prevalence by sex, grade and race/ethnicity, 95% confidence intervals, and population estimates, using the Hawaii Indicator-Based Information System (Hawaii-IBIS; http://ibis.hhdw.org/ibisph-view/). The impact of combustible and traditional tobacco on the lives of Hawaii’s youth has declined from 2000 to 2017. Fewer teens have experimented with cigarettes and cigars, as well as with smokeless tobacco. However, new tobacco products are a concern. Experimentation with electronic smoking devices remains high. Prior to 2017, e-cigarette use was estimated with a survey question asking about several forms of tobacco. In 2017, the Hawaii YTS survey included questions specifically about e-cigarette use. The results reflect a significantly higher prevalence of e-cigarette use. In 2017, 21.9% of middle school students reported ever using an e-cigarette and 11.5% were current users (in the past 30 days).
