This paper identifies the correlates of smokeless tobacco use in a sample of 1,030 males representative of 7th through 12th grade students of Dane County (Madison), Wisconsin. Variables independently associated with frequent use of smokeless tobacco were: being White; living in other than a two-parent home; performing poorly in school; smoking cigarettes; consuming beer, wine, or hard liquor; and deviant/delinquent behavior. Participation in team sports was associated with some "experimentation" with smokeless products.
