Trends in Cigarette Smoking Among High School
Students — United States, 1991–2001
May 17, 2002 / Vol. 51 / No. 19
The May 17, 2002, issue of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention's (CDC) Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR)
contains a report entitled, "Trends in Cigarette Smoking Among High
School Students — United States, 1999–2001."
The report reveals that although more than one in four U.S. high school
students still smoke cigarettes, rates among this group have been declining
since 1997. These
findings are from the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), part of CDC’s
Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System, which is a school-based survey that
collects data from students in grades 9–12 nationwide.
