To investigate the association of age, period and cohort with the changing pattern of cigarette smoking among youth and young adults for better planning tobacco control in the United States. Age-period-cohort analysis of the 1990-2005 National Survey on Drug Use and Health data. Rates of lifetime and 30-day smoking for adolescents fluctuated between 1990-96 before they declined; the same rates for young adults progressively increased until 2002 before declining. There were significant cohort effects on changes in the prevalence rates of cigarette smoking. The cohort effects on smoking underscore the need for sustained tobacco control policies.
