Research

In the fight to reduce tobacco use in America, research and evaluation are powerful tools used to ensure that interventions are effective.

Rigorous and timely research also contributes to scientific, health and policy debates.

Through research, we help expand upon the body of knowledge about tobacco control. These activities are conducted by both foundation staff and colleagues from some of the most prestigious colleges, and universities and research institutions across the country.

Our research efforts include:

  • Assessing the impact of tobacco-related mass media on target audiences
  • Providing technical assistance for program goals and outcome studies
  • Evaluating the influence of recent regulatory activities on tobacco use, knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and behaviors.

Schroeder Institute

Current gaps in tobacco control include the slow speed of development of more effective interventions and the inordinate delay in translating existing research knowledge into applications for widespread adoption and science-driven policy.  Putting what we know into practice and policy is essential to reduce smoking prevalence in our nation.

Legacy’s newly formed Schroeder Institute for Tobacco Research and Policy Studies (SI) is ideally positioned to play a leadership role in strengthening the national agenda for next generation research in tobacco control. Learn more.
