工作背景：需要对国家吸烟模式和戒烟相关行为进行最新数据跟踪，以评估烟草控制战略并为之提供信息。吸烟工具包研究（STS）就是为这一目的而设计的。本文介绍了STS的方法，并检查尽可能的代表性的samples.Methods：STS包括每月一次，横截面家庭访谈的成年人年龄在16岁及以上的吸烟者和最近的戒烟者在每个月的浪潮，随后由邮政问卷调查三个月和六个月后，在英格兰。2006年11月至2010年12月期间，共有90，568人完成了基线调查。将STS人口统计学、患病率和香烟消费量估计值与2007- 2009年英格兰健康调查（HSE）和一般生活方式调查（GLF）的估计值进行比较。g 2008年STS = 22.0%，95% C。I. = 21.4%~ 22.6%，HSE = 21.7%，95%C. I. = 20.9%~ 22.6%，GLF = 20.8%，C. I. = 19.7%至21.9%），尽管2007年存在异质性（卡方= 50.30，p < 0.001）。各次调查在社会人口分组内观察到一些差异，但主要是在2007年。香烟消费量几乎是相同的，在所有的调查和years.Conclusion：有理由相信，STS的调查结果（见http://www.smokinginengland.info）是generalisable的成年人口的英格兰。
Background: Up-to-date data tracking of national smoking patterns and cessation-related behaviour is required to evaluate and inform tobacco control strategies. The Smoking Toolkit Study (STS) was designed for this role. This paper describes the methodology of the STS and examines as far as possible the representativeness of the samples.Methods: The STS consists of monthly, cross sectional household interviews of adults aged 16 and over in England with smokers and recent ex-smokers in each monthly wave followed up by postal questionnaires three and six months later. Between November 2006 and December 2010 the baseline survey was completed by 90,568 participants. STS demographic, prevalence and cigarette consumption estimates are compared with those from the Health Survey for England (HSE) and the General Lifestyle Survey (GLF) for 2007-2009.Results: Smoking prevalence estimates of all the surveys were similar from 2008 onwards (e. g 2008 STS = 22.0%, 95% C. I. = 21.4% to 22.6%, HSE = 21.7%, 95% C. I. = 20.9% to 22.6%, GLF = 20.8%, 95% C. I. = 19.7% to 21.9%), although there was heterogeneity in 2007 (chi-square = 50.30, p < 0.001). Some differences were observed across surveys within sociodemographic sub-groups, although largely in 2007. Cigarette consumption was virtually identical in all surveys and years.Conclusion: There is reason to believe that the STS findings (see http://www.smokinginengland.info) are generalisable to the adult population of England.
