Models (1)–(4) use data from TUS-CPS, and Models (5)–(7) use data from BRFSS. These models include a set of variables (state cigarette tax, sex, race, age, education, family income, marital status, year and month fixed effects, county fixed effects, county characteristics, and county time trends). In addition, models (1) and (5) use state-level CIAL coverage from ANRF; models (2) and (6) use state-level CIAL coverage from ImpacTeen; models (3) and (7) are estimated using a probit model instead of linear probability for models; model (4) use data from 2001 to 2006. Sampling weights are applied and robust standard errors clustered at county level are shown in parentheses.
