Methodological note

The indicator shows the sum of the percentage of the population aged 15 and over who report smoking daily and those who report smoking but not daily (occasional smokers).

The denominator only takes into account the records that answered the question in the respective surveys. Therefore, the answers "Don't know" and "No answer" are not counted.

The indicator for Catalonia comes from the Catalan Health Survey and data for Spain and the European Union are collected through Eurobarometer.
