Main Findings |
|
|
|
| Keeler et al, 2004 [4] |
Econometric analysis of cigarette consumption shows the negative impact of price rise.
However, increased spending on advertisements offsets the effect to some extent. |
|
|
|
| Kim and Seldon, 2004 [5] |
Taxation has negative impact on cigarette consumption. Anti-smoking awareness programs
also have negative impact. |
|
|
|
| Ling and Glantz, 2002 [6] |
Marketing plays a greater role for stronger addiction among youth. Cigarette advertisements
promote regular smoking and thus increase the consumption. |
|
|
|
| Cornelia and Knight, 2002 [7] |
Cigarette advertisement increased the consumption among the teenagers. Antismoking
advertisements prevented cigarette advertising from promoting smoking. |
|
|
|
| Isao and Zhou, 2002 [8] |
Derived hypothetically cigarette demand in Japan and studied the impact of propaganda
on cigarette consumption. |
|
|
|
| Badi and Griffin, 2001 [9] |
Reexamined the rational addiction models of Becker, Grossman and Murphy (BGM) for
cigarette consumption. The results are supportive of the rational-addiction model. |
|
|
|
| Keeler et al, 2001 [10] |
Estimates consumer response to cigarette price change (reduces the consumer response
by 40–50%). Hypothesizes that a correlation between schooling and healthy behaviour
occurs. |
|
|
|
| Teh-wei Hu and Yi-wen Tsai, 2000 [11] |
Education and occupation are two important factors in explaining smoking in rural
China. People in rural China consume fewer cigarettes than those in urban areas. |
|
|
|
| Ping Zhang et al, 2000 [12] |
Tobacco price support programme (restrictions on imports and quotas) has direct (negative)
effect on cigarette consumption. |
|
|
|
| Chapman et al, 1999 [13] |
Australian and US restrictions on smoking at work places has the effect of reducing
smoking rates and prevalence. |
|
|
|
| Depken, Craig A, 1999 [14] |
Complete banning of cigarette advertising will not influence the prices of cigarettes,
while limits on marketing initiatives reduce the cigarette prices. |
|
|
|
| Hsieh, Chee-Ruey, 1999 [15] |
Taiwan has counterbalanced the impact of market opening on overall cigarette consumption
(positive effect) by antismoking campaigns (negative effect). |
|
|
|
| Yen, Steven T, 1999 [16] |
Considers two alternative models and concludes that they generate similar demand elasticities
for smoking among women. |
|
|
|
| Showalter, Mark H, 1998 [17] |
State excise taxes are found to be more effective in reducing cigarette consumption
than federal excise taxes. |
|
|
|
| Cameron et al, 1998 [18] |
This paper studies the effect of parameters like cigarette prices, income, education
and health on cigarette demand. Some of the findings of earlier studies have been
questioned. |
|
|
|
| George and Papapetrou, 1997 [19] |
Provides an empirical analysis of cigarette consumption using the Johansen co-integration
procedure. |
|
|
|
| Brown, A. Blake, 1995 [20] |
The price elasticity of demand for cigarettes exports from US is estimated through
the increased excise taxes, smoking restrictions, tobacco prices and quantities. |
|
|
|
| Becker et al, 1994 [21] |
Empirical results are derived to indicate that smoking is addictive. |
