Tobacco-reporting validity in an epidemiological drug-use survey
Article Abstract:
The estimation of tobacco-reporting validity in an epidemiological survey on drug use was carried out by comparing the responses to questions about tobacco use and passive exposure to smoking with biological tests for cotinine. The underreporting of tobacco was relatively rare but the estimates of the study state that it may be increasing over time.
