a

Households were considered to have a smoke-free rule if all adult respondents aged ≥ 18 in the household reported that no one was allowed to smoke anywhere inside the home at any time. Households were considered to have ≥ 1 adult smokers if at least one adult occupant aged ≥ 18 reported that they had smoked ≥ 100 cigarettes in their lifetime and smoked “everyday” or “some days” at the time of the survey.

b

Households were considered to have ≥ 1 child if at least one occupant aged <18 lived in the household.

c

A significant difference (p < 0.05) was observed between 1992/1993 and 2010/2011 for all states and the overall US.

d

Relative percent change between 1992/1993 and 2010/2011.

e

Statistically different (p < .05) from “Households with Children <18” for the same survey wave (1992/1993 or 2010/2011).
