| The conceptual framework we have developed for the American Stop Smoking Intervention Study (ASSIST) is attempting to explain the complex relationships between tobacco control efforts at the state-level and tobacco use across the U.S. The new indices, databases, and analytical methods that have been developed will not only help us understand the tobacco control efforts of the recent past but will provide invaluable information to help shape the tobacco control efforts for the future. This panel session will discuss the methods and measures we have developed for the ASSIST evaluation. We also will discuss the implications that these have for the next generation of tobacco control programs | ||||
