“…In Australia, Europe , and the United States, several population-based strategies have been found to be effective in reducing the number of cigarettes smokers consume per day. This includes clean indoor air laws ( Dinno & Glantz, 2009 ;Eriksen & Cerak, 2008 ), media campaigns ( Bala, Strzeszynski, & Cahill, 2008 ;Messer et al, 2007 ;Vallone, Duke, Cullen, McCausland, & Allen, 2011 ), and increased taxation ( Dinno & Glantz, 2009 ). These strategies have also been associated with smokers being categorized in the later stages of the quitting continuum ( DiClemente et al, 1991 ;Dinno & Glantz, 2009 ;Messer, et al, 2007 ;Pierce, Farkas, & Gilpin, 1998 ;Vallone, et al, 2011 ).…”
