FACET is a program of research based out of UBC that is committed to finding original ways to support young families in their tobacco reduction efforts. This project (2002-2012) innovated methods in gender research by conducting in-depth interviews with couples who smoked, reduced and/or quit before, during and after pregnancy.
Over the course of the FACET program, grounded theory, ethnography, and interpretive descriptive methods yielded rich information illustrating how masculinity and femininity influenced the tobacco-based interactions between couples. The findings from FACET research have been translated into effective gender-sensitive print and online materials for couples and promote the exchange of information between researchers and the community.
