  • Social desirability and under-reporting of smokeless tobacco use among reproductive age women

    Open AccessPrashant Kumar Singh, Pankhuri Jain et al.ARTICLESSM - Population Health2022

    This study argues that the current survey estimates misconstrue the authentic prevalence of tobacco use among women in India, including pregnant and lactating women. Due to social desirability or the presence of a third person during the survey interview, those respondents who do not report their tobacco use status are also more likely to forego essential support for successful tobacco cessation. Survey methodology must be strengthened to avert t…
