Abstract
Kindergarten children ( n = 112) were interviewed concerning recognition, use, and expected use of smokeless tobacco. Analysis of the data indicated significant relationships between personal use of smokeless tobacco and (1) knowing someone who used smokeless tobacco, (2) sex of the student, (3) expected use, and (4) having seen the product used at home. Significant relationships also existed between expected use and knowing someone who used the product, sex of the student, and having seen the product used at home.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
