通过销售年龄限制来阻止向未成年人销售烟草的努力有助于减少青少年烟草使用。这项研究的目的是评估美国成年人对将最低烟草销售年龄提高到21岁的态度。2014年对2014年夏季风格的数据进行了分析，这是一项针对美国年龄≥18岁成年人（N= 4，219）的互联网调查。受访者被问到：你赞成还是反对将购买所有烟草产品的法律的最低年龄从18岁提高到21岁？回答包括：强烈赞成，有点赞成，有点反对，强烈反对。使用逻辑回归计算OR和95% CI;协变量包括性别、年龄、人种/种族、教育、收入、地区和吸烟状况。在所有成年人中，50.4%的人强烈赞成将年龄提高到21岁，24.6%的人有点赞成; 77.5%的从不吸烟者、74.6%的曾经吸烟者和69.9%的当前吸烟者强烈或某种程度上赞成提高年龄。25-44岁的成年人强烈或某种程度上赞成提高年龄的调整后几率较高（OR=1.8，95% CI=1.3，2.5），45-64岁（OR=2.3，95% CI=1.7，3.2）和≥65岁（OR=3.1，95% CI=2.2，4.5），既往吸烟者（OR=0.7，95% CI=0.6，0.9）和当前吸烟者（OR = 0.7，95% CI=0.5，0.8）的年龄较低。四分之三的成年人赞成将销售烟草的最低年龄提高到21岁，其中包括十分之七的吸烟者。提高销售的最低年龄，沿着行之有效的烟草控制策略，可以防止青少年吸烟。
Efforts to disrupt tobacco sales to minors through age of sale restrictions can contribute to reductions in youth tobacco use. The objective of this study was to assess attitudes toward raising the minimum tobacco age of sale to 21 years among U.S. adults. Data from the 2014 Summer Styles, an Internet survey of U.S. adults aged ≥18 years (N=4,219), were analyzed in 2014. Respondents were asked: Do you favor or oppose raising the legal minimum age to purchase all tobacco products from 18 to 21? Responses included: strongly favor, somewhat favor, somewhat oppose, and strongly oppose. ORs and 95% CIs were calculated using logistic regression; covariates included sex, age, race/ethnicity, education, income, region, and cigarette smoking status. Among all adults, 50.4% strongly and 24.6% somewhat favored raising the age to 21 years; 77.5% of never smokers, 74.6% of former smokers, and 69.9% of current smokers strongly or somewhat favored it. Adjusted odds of strongly or somewhat favoring raising the age were higher among adults aged 25–44 (OR=1.8, 95% CI=1.3, 2.5), 45–64 (OR=2.3, 95% CI=1.7, 3.2), and ≥65 (OR=3.1, 95% CI=2.2, 4.5) years, and lower among former (OR=0.7, 95% CI=0.6, 0.9) and current (OR=0.7, 95% CI=0.5, 0.8) smokers. Three quarters of adults favor raising the minimum tobacco age of sale to 21 years, including seven in ten smokers. Raising the minimum age of sale, along with proven tobacco control strategies, could prevent youth tobacco use.
