项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Tobacco use is substantially higher among sexual minorities than among heterosexuals. The reasons for this persistent disparity remain unclear, but the high toll of death and disability from tobacco use creates substantial health inequalities in cancer. Same-sex couples' movement within the U.S. results in same-sex couples concentrating in more urban neighborhoods where there may be more tobacco retailers. Living near a tobacco retailer has been associated with decreased success in quitting tobacco. The presence or absence of overlapping patterns of same-sex couples and tobacco retailers have not been explored. This study uses a unique and high quality list of 92,384 tobacco retailers from 97 U.S. counties with 18,034 census tracts and data from the U.S. Census to examine the relationship between same-sex couple density and tobacco retailer density in census tracts. The analysis uses geographical information systems (GIS) software that allows for buffering census tract areas to create a measure of tract tobacco retailer density. This relationship is tested usin spatial regression models to account for non-independence due to geographic proximity. The relationship is then examined to see if it is the result of other, confounding census tract characteristics. A multiple mediation approach is proposed to examine if the relationship between tobacco retailer density and same-sex couple density is confounded by tract characteristics such as urbanicity, income, and racial/ethnic composition.

描述（由申请人提供）：性少数群体的烟草使用率远远高于异性恋者。造成这种持续差异的原因尚不清楚，但烟草使用造成的高死亡率和残疾率造成了癌症方面的严重健康不平等。同性伴侣在美国的运动导致同性伴侣集中在更多的城市社区，那里可能有更多的烟草零售商。生活在烟草零售商附近与戒烟成功率降低有关。同性伴侣和烟草零售商的重叠模式是否存在尚未探讨。这项研究使用了来自美国97个县的92，384家烟草零售商的独特和高质量的名单，其中包括18，034个人口普查区域和美国人口普查数据，以研究人口普查区域中同性伴侣密度和烟草零售商密度之间的关系。该分析使用地理信息系统（GIS）软件，允许缓冲人口普查区，以创建一个衡量烟草零售商密度。这种关系进行了测试，使用空间回归模型来解释由于地理邻近的非独立性。然后检查这种关系，看看它是否是其他混杂的人口普查区特征的结果。多重调解的方法，提出了检查烟草零售商密度和同性伴侣密度之间的关系是混淆道的特点，如城市化，收入，和种族/民族组成。
