Decomposition of Cohort, Age and Time Effects in Iranian Households Cigarette Consumption, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Keshavarz Haddad, Gholamreza (Supervisor)
Abstract
This study aims to examine cigarette consumption behavior of younger cohorts in the urban areas of Iran. we use Iranian household's income and expenditures survey over 2007-2012 and a double-hurdle modeling approach to take into account the zero expenditure on cigarette consumption. after controlling for price and demographic factors which determine the demand for cigarettes, we find that the younger cohorts tend to use more cigarettes than the older ones, however the age effects for men aged between 21-45 are positive
