Summary
The National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) was developed to provide the data necessary to support the design, implementation, and evaluation of state and national tobacco prevention and control programs (TCPs). Tobacco product-related indicators included in the NYTS are: tobacco product use; exposure to secondhand smoke and e-cigarette aerosol; smoking cessation; minors’ access to tobacco products; knowledge and attitudes about tobacco; and familiarity with pro-tobacco advertisements and anti-tobacco media messages. The 2022 NYTS was administered as a 100% online self-administered questionnaire of students in grades 6-12. The final sample consisted of 341 schools and 37,172 students for an overall participation rate of 76.1%.
