Tobacco Use
Fact Sheets
These fact sheets contain results from the
Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) and School Health Profiles (Profiles) related to tobacco use. The YRBS
results describe the problem by identifying the percent of high school
students who smoke cigarettes and who use other tobacco products including
smokeless tobacco. The Profiles results describe characteristics of health
education, partnerships between schools and the community, and the school
environment among middle/junior and senior high schools that may help
address the problem.

1. States and districts listed
above had weighted data for both YRBS and School Health
Profiles. Weighted data means that at least 70% of the
respondents in the sample completed the survey. Weighted data
represent the state or district. With weighted data, it is
possible to say, for example, "X% of high school students in our
state smoked cigarettes in the past month."
