The significance of social status, impulsiveness, discounting and psychosocial factors for tobacco consumption
Project
|Last update
The project will explore the significance of impulsiveness, discounting and psychosocial circumstances for tobacco use and changes in the tobacco-consumption behaviour of adults.
Summary
The project will ask how far these connections are modified by social status. Previously collected data from Ung i Norge (Young in Norway) (NOVA – Norwegian Social Research) and Norsk Monitor will be used in the analyses. Relevant information in the data will be on smoking behaviour, socio-economic, demographic and psychosocial factors.
