In 1999, Poland was one of the first
countries to carry out the Global Youth Tobacco Survey
(GYTS), supported by the US Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, and World Health Organization, a standardized
school-based survey of teenage smoking behavior, attitudes,
and knowledge. This report presents background information
on smoking, and tobacco control policies in Poland, and
simple descriptive statistics of the GYTS survey data. It
focuses on the relationship between smoking behavior,
cigarette prices, and other factors that can be affected by
policies intended to reduce smoking in order to reduce the
associated burden of disease, and premature death. Multiple
regressions explore the factors that affect the decision to
smoke, and the number of cigarettes that current smokers
report smoking each month, and find that availability of
pocket money, age, gender, living in a large town,
advertising, counter-advertising, and disease-specific
information on the effects of smoking all appear to be
statistically significant. The analysis does not include the
data needed to estimate price elasticity, but the survey
suggests clearly that higher cigarette taxes that raise real
prices, and certain tobacco control policies can reduce
cigarette demand among teenage students in Poland. |
