Current Population Survey Tobacco Use Supplement
Add to My BasketDescription
The Tobacco Use Supplement to the Current Population Survey (TUS-CPS) is a National Cancer Institute (NCI) sponsored survey of tobacco use that is administered as part of the U.S. Census Bureau's Current Population Survey. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was a co-sponsor with NCI from 2001-02 through 2006-07.
The Tobacco Use Supplement-Current Population Survey (TUS-CPS) has served as a key source of national, state, and sub-state data on tobacco use behaviors, attitudes, and policies in the United States. The TUS is conducted every 3-4 years as part of the CPS, a monthly survey conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau for the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. In each wave, TUS-CPS collects nationally representative data from about 240,000 adults, 180,000 from self-respondents. About two-thirds of respondents complete the questionnaire by telephone and responses for the remaining third are obtained through in-person interviews. The survey is regularly conducted in English and Spanish, and other languages when needed.
The project review timeframes above do not apply to applications that request access to confidential data assets commingled with data that are either not owned, or are only co-owned, by the statistical agency(s) or unit(s) and require approval from third parties not subject to this policy (e.g., state and local government agencies).
