4 Number of deaths (thousands) 1/7/2015 Behavioral Causes of Death in U.S. 700 Annual Causes of Death in the United States, Heart Disease* Cancer* *Tobacco Related Illnesses 500 **Tobacco Use is a Risk Factor Chronic Respiratory Diseases* Cerebrovascular Disease* Accidents** Rates of Tobacco Use 21.3% of adults in the U.S. currently use tobacco products Cigarettes 17.8% Smokeless tobacco 2.6% Cigars, cigarillos or small cigars 2.0% Electronic cigarettes 1.9% Water pipes/hookah 0.5% Pipes 0.3% 4

6 Tobacco Industry Targeting In 2011, tobacco companies spent $8.8 billion on advertising and promotional materials Tobacco companies sought out individuals with limited resources to cessation services Promoted smoking in treatment settings Monitored or directly funded research supporting the idea that people with schizophrenia need to smoke to manage symptoms For every $1 the state spends to reduce tobacco use, $18 is spent by tobacco companies to promote their products. Tobacco and Youth (12-17) 23% of U.S. high school students report tobacco use in the last 30 days As with adults, rates of tobacco use are higher among youth with a behavioral health diagnosis 90% of youth try tobacco before age 18 88% of daily adult smokers started smoking by age 18 99% of adult smokers become daily users before the age of 26 Tobacco and Youth Youth are more likely to: Benefit long-term from preventative interventions Be a target of aggressive marketing by tobacco companies Become susceptible to social and environmental pressures to use tobacco 6

8 Tobacco and Women Research indicates there may be generational differences between women and men in cessation behaviors Women tend to smoke less for nicotine reinforcement and more for non-nicotine reinforcement, such as: Sensory effects of smoking Management of stress and negative affect Secondary social reinforcement Weight management Tobacco and Women Greater risk of developing a smoking-related disease than men Gender-specific health issues and pregnancy complications More difficulty quitting Tobacco Use and Race/ Ethnicity Rates of tobacco use: Multiple race 26.8% American Indian/Native American 26.1% White 19.4% Black 18.3% Hispanic 12.1% Asian 9.6% Tobacco industry targets specific racial/ ethnic groups through advertising, product development and sponsoring cultural events 8
