From 1993 to 1995, researchers at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill conducted a three-state research study to assess state legislators' intentions to support or oppose tobacco-control legislation, and determine how such intentions are influenced by legislators' demographic characteristics, their knowledge of and attitudes toward tobacco control, and their perception of and contact with lobbyists on tobacco-related issues.
The project was part of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) Tobacco Policy Research and Evaluation Program national program.
Key Findings
The study found that:
Funding
RWJF supported this project through a grant of $328,115.
There are currently no additional readings for this publication.
Grant Results Reports
RWJF produces Grant Results reports on its funded initiatives. External writers and editors read the entire grant to prepare each report, which is then reviewed by RWJF staff and by the director of the initiative. Any reviewer in the chain may ask for changes in the report to improve clarity or accuracy.
