Data and SAS Read-in Files

Datasets are provided below in .dat/ASCII format. SAS programs for creating a permanent SAS dataset from the .dat and ASCII text files (called “SAS Read-In Files”) are provided below. Each program reads all variables from the corresponding core and supplement and creates a SAS dataset containing all the variables.

Replicate Weights

The 2022-2023 Replicate Weight Files, including self-response and non-response weights, are hosted on Census’ site and are linked below. The site also contains SAS read-in files (labeled “SAS Input Statements”) for each set of replicate weights.

What Do the 2022-2023 TUS Data Say about Tobacco Use?

The data tables listed here provide examples of the type of information that researchers can obtain from the TUS. They are based on analyses of the 2022-23 TUS-CPS data files. All tables refer to self-response data only.

• Table 1: Smoking Status
• Table 2: E-Cigarette Use
• Table 3: Home and Workplace Environments

When using these tables, please note that:

• Several federal surveys are used to track tobacco usage in the US population, each with slightly different assessments. These tables are examples of analyses of the 2022-23 data files that are available from the TUS-CPS.
• The table data are weighted for the sample design and for TUS-CPS self-response.
• Tabled values may not sum exactly to 100% due to rounding.
• These tables contain simple parameter estimates (percentages and means), and measures of variance in the form of confidence intervals. These confidence intervals were estimated using replicate weights. Alternative estimates of variance and confidence intervals can be made for simple analyses using Attachment 16 of the 2022-23 Tobacco Use Supplement Files of the US Census Bureau Technical Documentation. Replicate weights necessary for more complex analysis such as regression or analysis of variance are available for download from NCI.
