Smoking2
Cigarette smoking is of interest to the National Institute on Drug Abuse both because of
the public health problems associated with this form of substance abuse and because this
behavior represents a prototypic dependence process. In the past few years the

exploitation of tobbacco use, and its acceptance among Americas Youngsters. However,
cigarette smoking among adolescents is on the rise.
