Current labels for the nicotine in e-cigarette/vaping products do not sufficiently convey information to the public. The aims of this study include developing and validating two new types of labels for the nicotine in vaping products: nicotine concentration and nicotine flux (reflecting nicotine emissions). Investigators will survey youth (ages 14-20) and adults (ages 21+ \[21 is the legal age to purchase tobacco products in the U.S.\]) to evaluate the utility of several new labels investigators have developed.
The primary goal of the proposed study is to improve labeling of the nicotine in e-cigarettes so that both youth and adults better understand the nicotine strength of these products. Aims include: 1) developing a universally-applicable nicotine concentration label that provides more information than does current market labeling, and 2) examining the utility of labeling nicotine flux (i.e., the nicotine produced through the product mouthpiece) for closed-system e-cigarettes relative to current market labeling and the new nicotine concentration labeling. This study has three primary objectives.…
Inclusion Criteria: * Youth\* (14-20 years) or an adults (21 years and older) * The legal age for purchasing tobacco in the U.S. is 21 years.
