Replenishment Survey questionnaire administered to newly-recruited respondents in all waves after the first; used to replace respondents who dropped out of the project.

Smoked Tobacco User For respondents who smoke cigarette and/or bidis.
Smokeless Tobacco User For respondents who ONLY use smokeless tobacco.

However, screening generally includes all tobacco products that are commonly used in a country)
