To examine differences in tobacco use and cessation between young adults (aged 18\u201324 years) and adults aged 25 years or older. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Methods. We used data from the 2016 US National Health Interview Survey (n\u2009=\u200933\u2009028) to identify 13\u2009494 current and former cigarette smokers (562 aged 18\u201324 years; 12\u2009932 aged 25 years or older). We analyzed correlations between age group, cigarette smoking, cessation behaviors, and other tobacco and nicotine use. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Results. Among current and former smokers, those aged 18 to 24 years had lower odds of having quit for 1 year or longer and higher odds of having tried e-cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and smokeless tobacco compared with adults aged 25 years or older, as well as higher odds of daily e-cigarette and smokeless tobacco use. Young adult smokers used fewer cigarettes per day than did those aged 25 years or older (mean\u2009=\u20098.8 vs 12.3), had higher odds of making a past-year quit attempt (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]\u2009=\u20091.42), and had lower odds of having a health professional talk to them about smoking (AOR\u2009=\u20090.44). <\/jats:p><jats:p> Conclusions. Greater experimentation with noncigarette products, lower cigarette consumption, and greater interest in quitting smoking invite novel intervention approaches to tobacco reduction, cessation, and relapse prevention in young adults. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2105\/ajph.2018.304815","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,12,20]],"date-time":"2018-12-20T20:57:08Z","timestamp":1545339428000},"page":"296-299","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Tobacco Use and Cessation Behaviors in Young Adults: 2016 National Health Interview Survey"],"prefix":"10.2105","volume":"109","author":[{"given":"Julia C.","family":"West","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Julia C.
