  • Review of trends in smoking behavior since the 1970s and 2000s.

    • Main Results:

    • Sex differences in smoking behavior have narrowed since the 1970s.
    • Smoking prevalence has decreased among the most advantaged but increased among the less advantaged since 2000, indicating widening social inequalities.
    • Smoking initiation often occurs before the age of 18, exacerbating social disparities.

    Conclusions:

    • Addressing social inequalities in smoking initiation is crucial for effective tobacco control.
    • Continued efforts are needed to reduce smoking rates in France.
    • The impact of public policies implemented in 2016 will be assessed through upcoming surveys.
