Summary:

The basic purpose of the Health Interview Survey (HIS) is to obtain information about the amount and distribution of illness, its effects in terms of disability and chronic impairments, and the kinds of health services people receive. Person variables include sex, age, race, marital status, veteran status, education, income, industry and occupation codes, and limits on activity. This Smoking Supplement contains information on smoking status of respondents including whether they never smoked, occasionally smoked, were former smokers, or were present smokers. Data are also supplied on number of cigarettes smoked, age when started smoking, brands smoked, number of attempts to quit smoking, and tar and nicotine levels of brands smoked.
