Introduction: Cigarette smoking is among the largest risk factors for cognitive decline in later life. This study examines the associations between hospitality smoke-free coverage in the US and the prevalence of self-rated cognitive function decline and disparities therein.
Methods: I use the repeated cross-sectional Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance data collected between 2017 and 2022 from a sample of Americans 45 years and older and estimate logistic regression models predicting self-rated cognitive function decline by calculated smoke-free hospitality coverage in restaurants and bars.

Aim: In February 2024, the Aotearoa New Zealand Government repealed legislation to mandate very low nicotine cigarettes (VLNCs), greatly reduce the number of tobacco retailers and disallow sale of tobacco products to people born after 2008 (smokefree generation). We investigated acceptability and likely impacts of these measures among people who smoke or who recently (≤2 years) quit smoking.
Method: We analysed data from 1,230 participants from Wave 3 (conducted in late 2020 and early 2021) and 615 participants from Wave 3.
