Youth Tobacco Survey
The 2017 Minnesota Youth Tobacco Survey measured use of eight types of tobacco products and included additional questions related to use of cigarettes and electronic cigarettes. The survey also measured exposure to tobacco advertising, secondhand smoke, and e-cigarette vapor. One hundred public schools and classrooms across the state were randomly selected, and 70 participated in the study. Overall, 4,112 students in grades 6 through 12 took the survey resulting in an overall response rate of 62.7%. Prior to analysis, the data were adjusted for nonresponse and weighted to produce statewide prevalence estimates while accounting for the complex survey design.
