Abstract
The 2023 South Carolina Adult Tobacco Survey (SC—ATS) was designed to produce precise state-level estimates but does not have adequate sample size to make direct estimates to small domains with adequate precision. Direct estimates only use data related to the domain in question and the study design information (e.g., sampling weights and stratification). We apply a modeling approach to make indirect estimates to small domains. The statistical model leverages a model to make “indirect” estimates for domains that lack adequate sample size for direct estimation. The small areas described in this report include the 46 individual South Carolina counties and 32 domains composed of the cross-classification of sex, age category (18-24, 25-44, 45-64, 65 and older), and race/ethnicity (White NH, Black NH, Hispanic, other NH).
