Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Office on Smoking and Health (OSH) – Global Tobacco Surveillance System (GTSS) - Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS). The Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS) is the global standard to systematically monitor adult tobacco use and track key tobacco control indicators. GATS is a nationally representative household survey of adults 15 years of age or older, using a standard protocol. It is intended to generate comparable data within and across countries. GATS enhances countries' capacity to design, implement and evaluate tobacco control interventions. * **Snowflake Schema**: dwv\_global\_survey\_data * **Databricks Schema**: cdc\_dwv\_global\_survey\_data * **Table Name**: gtss\_gats\_ere\_s\_the\_breakdown\_of\_the\_co\_\_4xf6\_nrwk * **Dataset ID**: 4xf6-nrwk * **Category**: Global Survey Data * **Total Rows**: 276,388 * **Last Refresh**: 7/1/2025 * **Total Batches**: 2 * **Tags**: adult, gats, gtss, osh, tobacco * **Source Data**: #### Global Tobacco Surveillance System (GTSS) - Global Health Professions Student Survey (GHPSS) * **Description**: 2005-2011. The World Health Organization, CDC, and the Canadian Public Health Association, developed the GHPSS to collect data on tobacco use and cessation counseling among health professional students in all WHO member states. GHPSS is a standardized school-based survey of third-year students pursuing advanced degrees in dentistry, medicine, nursing, or pharmacy. It is conducted in schools during regular class sessions. GHPSS follows an anonymous, self-administered format for data collection. GHPSS uses a core questionnaire on demographics, prevalence of cigarette smoking and other tobacco use, knowledge and attitudes about tobacco use, exposure to secondhand smoke, desire for smoking cessation, and training received regarding patient counseling on smoking cessation techniques. Questionnaires are translated into local languages as needed. GHPSS has a standardized methodology for selecting participating schools and classes and uniform data processing procedures. * **Snowflake Schema**: dwv\_global\_survey\_data * **Databricks Schema**: cdc\_dwv\_global\_survey\_data * **Table Name**: gtss\_ghpss\_survey\_\_x6ag\_8y7r * **Dataset ID**: x6ag-8y7r * **Category**: Global Survey Data * **Total Rows**: 30,582 * **Last Refresh**: 7/12/2025 * **Total Batches**: 2 * **Tags**: ghpss, gtss, osh, students, tobacco * **Source Data**: #### Global Tobacco Surveillance System (GTSS) - Global School Personnel Survey (GSPS) * **Description**: 2001-2011.
