1986年，在新墨西哥州招募了149名成年非吸烟者，作者评估了关于在家中终生暴露于烟草烟雾的问卷回答的可靠性。他们还将尿可替宁水平与过去24小时内环境烟草烟雾暴露的问卷报告进行了比较。在六个月内两次获得的反应的协议是高的父母在儿童时期吸烟：94%的母亲和93%的父亲。对于母亲和父亲在受试者童年时期的吸烟量，两次访谈之间的一致性适中：分别为52%和39%。对于受试者童年时期父母在家中每天吸烟的小时数，斯皮尔曼相关系数也表明只有中等可靠性（母亲吸烟r = 0.18，父亲吸烟r = 0.54）。对于每一组访谈，有关最近的烟草烟雾暴露和尿可替宁水平的反应，只有适度的相关性。作者得出结论，成年人可以可靠地报告家庭成员是否在童年时期吸烟，但关于吸烟的定量方面的信息报告不太可靠。
In a sample of 149 adult nonsmokers recruited in New Mexico in 1986, the authors assessed the reliability of questionnaire responses on lifetime exposure to tobacco smoke in the home. They also compared urinary cotinine levels with questionnaire reports of environmental tobacco smoke exposure during the previous 24 hours. The agreement of responses obtained on two occasions within six months was high for parental smoking during childhood: 94% for the mother and 93% for the father. For the amounts smoked by the mother and the father during the subject''s childhood, the agreement between the two interviews was moderate: 52% and 39%, respectively. For the number of hours per day that each parent smoked in the home during the subject''s childhood, the Spearman correlation coefficients also indicated only moderate reliability (r = 0.18 for maternal smoking and r = 0.54 for paternal smoking). For each set of interviews, responses concerning recent tobacco smoke exposure and urinary cotinine levels were correlated to only a modest degree. The authors conclude that adults can reliably report whether household members smoked during their childhood, but information on quantitative aspects of smoking is reported less reliably.
