This short report uses 2009 to 2010 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) to assess cigarette risk perception and cigarette use among adolescents aged 12 to 17 by State. Results are shown by State for 2002-2003 and 2009-2010.

Prevalence estimates and 95% confidence intervals for persons aged 12 or older, 12 to 17, 18 to 25, and 26 or older; also for persons 12 to 20 for one alcohol measure.

Percentages are weighted to population characteristics. Data are not available if it did not meet BRFSS stability requirements.For more information on these requirements, as well as risk factors and calculated variables, see the Technical Documents and Survey Data for a specific year - http://www.cdc.gov/brfss/annual_data/annual_data.htm.Recommended citation: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

2011-2019. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). State Tobacco Activities Tracking and Evaluation (STATE) System. BRFSS Survey Data. The BRFSS is a continuous, state-based surveillance system that collects information about modifiable risk factors for chronic diseases and other leading causes of death. The data for the STATE System were extracted from the annual BRFSS surveys from participating states. Tobacco topics included are cigarette and e-cigarette use prevalence by demographics, cigarette and e-cigarette use frequency, and quit attempts. NOTE: these data are not to be compared with BRFSS data collected 2010 and prior, as the methodologies were changed. Please refer to the FAQs / Methodology sections for more details.

The 2011 BRFSS data reflects a change in weighting methodology (raking) and the addition of cell phone only respondents. Shifts in observed prevalence from 2010 to 2011 for BRFSS measures will likely reflect the new methods of measuring risk factors, rather than true trends in risk-factor prevalence. A break in trend lines after 2010 is used to reflect this change in methodolgy. Percentages are weighted to population characteristics. Data are not available if it did not meet BRFSS stability requirements.For more information on these requirements, as well as risk factors and calculated variables, see the Technical Documents and Survey Data for a specific year - http://www.cdc.gov/brfss/annual_data/annual_data.htm.Recommended citation: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

State-level totals and 95% confidence intervals for individuals aged 12 or older, 12 to 17, 18 to 25, 26 or older, and 18 or older are presented; also shown are totals for individuals aged 12 to 20 for two alcohol measures.

This report presents trends of estimates for measures of substance use and mental health based on the combined 2010 and 2011 and the combined 2011 and 2012 National Surveys on Drug Use and Health (NSDUHs). Topics covered include past month substance use (e.g., illicit drugs, marijuana, cocaine, pain relievers, alcohol, tobacco), substance dependence, abuse, and treatment need, past year serious mental illness (SMI), any mental illness (AMI), suicidal thoughts, and major depressive episode (MDE). Resuts are provided for five age groups: 12 to 17, 18 to 25, 26 or older, 18 or older and all persons 12 or older.

YRBSS Data. The YRBS is conducted biennially and collects data on a variety of youth risk behaviors including tobacco use. The YRBS uses a two-stage cluster sample design to produce representative samples of students in high schools (grades 9-12). The YRBS uses SUDAAN to calculate asymmetric confidence intervals based on the logit transformation. The logit transformation constrains confidence interval limits to vary between a lower limit of 0% and an upper limit of 100%. The data for the STATE System were extracted from YRBSS surveys from participating states. Tobacco topics include cigarette and e-cigarette use prevalence, cigarette and e-cigarette use frequency, and smokeless tobacco products.

Explore state and regional data for HHS Region 2 with this user-friendly behavioral health report. It uses data from the 2021-2022 National Surveys on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH). The topics addressed in this report include substance use, substance use disorders, and mental health. Selected estimates are provided for adolescents aged 12 to 17, underage people aged 12 to 20, adults aged 18 or older, and the general population aged 12 or older. Statistical tests compare population percentages of (1) HHS region versus national estimates, (2) state versus national estimates, and (3) state versus HHS region estimates.
