Although rates of smoking are declining among North American adolescents, tobacco smoking remains the number one preventable cause of death. Due in part to the financial cost of utilizing biomarkers, most large studies of youth tobacco use rely on self-report to quantify the frequency and amount of cigarettes smoked. Unfortunately, self-reported smoking may be influenced by the means and situation in which the teen is queried and appears to be less sensitive among adolescents compared with adults.
