Description topics

Smoking, 12 years or over

The survey questions about smoking are put to persons aged 12 years or older.

Smokers

Smokers: % of persons in the population who answered 'yes' to the question: Do you smoke occasionally? Refers to persons aged 12 years or older.

Heavy smokers in the population: % of persons in the population who smoke 20 cigarettes a day or more. Persons who only smoke a pipe and/or cigars are included as smokers smoking 0 cigarettes a day. Refers to persons aged 12 years or older.

Heavy smokers among smokers: % of smokers who smoke 20 cigarettes a day or more. Persons who only smoke a pipe and/or cigars are included as smokers smoking 0 cigarettes a day. Refers to persons aged 12 years or older.

Daily smokers: % of persons in the population who answered 'yes' to the question: Do you smoke every day? Refers to persons aged 12 years or older.

Cigarettes per day per person: Daily number of cigarettes smoked per person in the population. Refers to persons aged 12 years or older.

Cigarettes per day per smoker: Daily number of cigarettes smoked per smoker. Persons who only smoke a pipe and/or cigars are included as smokers smoking 0 cigarettes a day. Refers to persons aged 12 years or older.

Years smoked, present smokers: Number of years a present smoker has smoked cigarettes. For persons who have stopped smoking cigarettes, but still smoke cigars and/or a pipe at the time of the interview, the whole period is considered as 'years smoked'. Refers to persons aged 12 years or older.

Former cigarette smokers

Years former cigarette smokers smoked: Number of years a former cigarette smoker smoked cigarettes. Refers to persons aged 12 years or older.

Years since former smokers stopped: Number of years since a former cigarette smoker stopped smoking cigarettes. Refers to persons aged 12 years or older.

Alcohol consumption, 12 years and older

The survey questions about alcohol consumption are put to persons aged 12 years or older.

Heavy drinker: Percentage of persons who are heavy drinkers. Refers to persons aged 12 years or older. In 2010 and 2011 the definition of a heavy drinker was a person that drinks at least 6 glasses of alcohol on one day at least once a week. From 2012 onwards there is a distinction between men and women. For men still goes that a heavy drinker is a person who drinks at least 6 glasses of alcohol on one day at least once a week. For women goes that a heavy drinker is a person who drinks at least 4 glasses of alcohol on one day at least once a week. Due to this change in definition the figures of 2010 and 2011 cannot be compared very well with the figures of 2012 onwards.
