New Zealand Youth Tobacco Monitor

Tobacco Research - New Zealand Youth Tobacco Monitor (NZYTM)

The 2020 ASH Year 10 Snapshot survey has been postponed until further notice due to COVID-19.

The New Zealand Youth Tobacco Monitor (NZYTM) is a national school-based monitor of Year 10 students, run by Action for Smokefree 2025 (ASH) and Te Hiringa Hauora/Health Promotion Agency. The NZYTM forms part of our public health monitoring programme, and gathers information on smoking and vaping related attitudes and behaviours among Year 10 students.

The 2020 NZYTM involves the ASH Year 10 Snapshot, an annual survey of around 30,000 Year 10 students throughout New Zealand.

Between 2006 and 2018, NZYTM also included our Youth Insights Survey (YIS). The YIS was carried out every two years, with one Year 10 class invited to participate from approximately 140 randomly selected schools. Results and methodology reports from the Youth Insights Survey are published here: https://www.hpa.org.nz/our-work/research/publications
