The Effectiveness of Tobacco Control in California Schools

Abstract:
This commentary reports the expenitures on tobacco control programs in California schools since 1989 and data from students interviewed by telephone as part of the California Tobacco Surveys (1990, n=4, 941; 1993, n=5, 402; 1996, n=6, 185). Did this infusion of money lead to achievement of the two main objectives outlined for tobacco control in schools?
