Fil: Petruzzello, Esteban. Universidad de San Andrés. Departamento de Economía; Argentina. I use detailed household-level data to investigate the potential impact of a ban on menthol cigarettes on smoking when compared to intervention policies such as taxes and public smoking restrictions. The results show that menthols are less addictive than non-menthols, and that demand for menthol cigarettes is less price sensitive. Public smoking restrictions are unsuccessful in reducing menthol smoking, though they do reduce non-menthol consumption. Additionally, higher prices do not increase the likelihood of quitting for menthol smokers. These findings indicate that current policies are ineffective in curbing menthol smoking, and a complete ban might be required. 2021-08-18T20:53:04Z 2021-08-18T20:53:04Z 2019-09 Tesis info:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesis info:ar-repo/semantics/tesis de maestría info:eu-repo/semantics/updatedVersion http://hdl.handle.net/10908/18470 http://hdl.handle.net/10908/18470 eng info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ application/pdf Universidad de San Andrés.
