Note. Sample distributions include current cigarette smokers (n = 22,189) and recent quitters (n = 776). Sample sizes reflect total observations in the analytic sample, representing 8,209 unique individuals. Smokers are defined as adults aged 18 or older who had smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime and currently smoked every day or some days. Recent quitters are defined as adults who quit smoking in the past 3 months. Data are weighted to the U.S. general population of adult smokers using the 2010–2011 Tobacco Use Supplement of the Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey.
