- | Derived variables describing smoking status based on cigarette smoking at ages 25, 31, 36, 43 and 53 years are available showing whether a study member was a current smoker, an ex smoker or had never smoked. | + | There are also measures of the number of cigarettes smoked, including longitudinal 'pack years' variables, which give a measure of lifetime (up to age 60-64) smoking intake. |

- | Current cigarette smoking status (‘yes’, ‘no’) and the number of cigarettes smoked per day were obtained in six waves (at ages 20, 25, 31, 36, 43 and 53 years). Study members who provided an affirmative response to being current cigarette smokers, regardless of the quantity of cigarettes smoked per day, were classified as ‘smokers’ while those who provided negative response were classified as ‘non-smoker’. From age 36 onwards research nurses obtained information on smoking during a home-interview, | ||
