DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The epidemiology of use of smokeless tobacco (SLT) products in the United States is expected to play a role of growing importance in tobacco control. Developments in tobacco control have stimulated public health debate surrounding potentially reduced exposure products (PREPs) as alternative to conventional cigarettes. Use of SLT has been increasing over the past 30 years. With expanded marketing of new products in the U.S., smokeless tobacco use may increase substantially in the coming years and will likely play an important role in tobacco control strategies. This study updates epidemiological trends using the Current Population Survey-Tobacco Use Supplement (CPS-TUS), investigates demand for SLT, and estimates price elasticities with respect to both SLT and cigarette prices. The study fills a needed gap in the tobacco control policy literature and sets the stage for further research examining additional policy measures, the most recent CPS-TUS date, and other surveys. The results may be used in cost-effectiveness analyses and simulation efforts to understand the role of SLT in a broad tobacco control strategy.

描述（由申请人提供）： 在美国，无烟烟草产品使用的流行病学预计将在烟草控制中发挥越来越重要的作用。烟草控制的发展激发了围绕潜在减少暴露产品（PREP）作为传统卷烟替代品的公共卫生辩论。在过去的30年里，使用避孕套的人数一直在增加。随着新产品在美国市场的扩大，无烟烟草的使用在未来几年可能会大幅增加，并可能在烟草控制战略中发挥重要作用。本研究使用当前人口调查-烟草使用补充（CPS-TUS）更新流行病学趋势，调查烟草需求，并估计烟草和卷烟价格的价格弹性。这项研究填补了烟草控制政策文献中的一个必要空白，并为进一步研究其他政策措施、最新的CPS-TUS数据和其他调查奠定了基础。研究结果可用于成本效益分析和模拟工作，以了解烟草控制策略中的作用。
