Show/Hide Abstract

Abstract: This is the final report of the behavior coding analysis and interviewer debriefing conducted on the CPS Tobacco Use Supplement. Ten interviewers and one supervisor –from the Charlotte Regional Office- participated in the pretest and were provided with a “master questionnaire” to help them with the debriefing. Interviews were split 25/75 between personal visit and telephone and were all tape-recorded. Total number of completed individual interviews was 450, from 260 households out of 304 eligible households. Results from the 450 interviews are presented in a series of tables broken down by mode of interview (in-person, telephone), type of respondent (self-response, proxy, missing), and smoking status (current, former, and non-smokers, and unknown). The report also includes a description of the behavior codes utilized.
