Feelings of Guilt and Remorse After Alcohol Consumption Among People Who Drink at Increasing and Higher‐Risk Levels
Prevalence and correlates of tobacco use among adolescents in Dhaka, Bangladesh
Tobacco use among adolescents in low- and middle-income countries is a public health concern. This study investigated the prevalence and correlates of ever and current tobacco use among adolescents in Dhaka, Bangladesh. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among school-going adolescents aged 11–18 years in schools across Dhaka city between June and September 2022, using an opportunistic sampling approach. A structured questionnaire collected da…
Understanding the 2024 Summer Riots in the UK
The wave of riots in England in summer 2024 constituted the biggest wave of disorder in the country for more than a decade. These were followed by swift policy responses, based on assumptions about the events and the participants, before any detailed empirical investigation had been carried out. There is a need for detailed description of events as a solid basis for both social psychological theory and policy. This article therefore presents case…
Impact of standardising the colour and branding of vape devices on product appeal among young people
Standardising the colour and branding of disposable vaping devices reduces young people's interest in trying them. However, this includes a substantial impact on those who smoke
Level of support for proposed vaping policies
Policies that target the packaging, appearance, and marketing of e-cigarettes appear much more popular among vapers than those targeting price or the types of devices and flavours that can be sold. Vapers emphasised the need to balance policy interventions that make e-cigarettes less appealing to young people but do not deter people from using them as an alternative to smoking
Exploring how an e-cigarette intervention influenced tobacco smoking behaviour in people accessing homelessness services
For people accessing homelessness support centres, smoking abstinence remains challenging. More intensive support and a variety of approaches to support smoking cessation, particularly those which address the psychosocial factors which hinder smoking abstinence, may be required. Future research should focus on how this can be achieved
Paying the price
In the first quarter of 2023, around one in eight adults in Great Britain reported finding it difficult to manage financially and one in fifteen reported having been in rent or mortgage arrears in the past 12 months, with higher rates of financial hardship among disadvantaged groups. However, disadvantage did not appear to compound the psychological impact of financial hardship: people experiencing financial hardship were substantially more likel…
Patterns and perceptions of vaping among adults living in social housing
The study protocol and analysis plan were pre-registered on Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/n3mvs/)
Smoking prevalence and purchasing of menthol cigarettes since the menthol flavour ban in Great Britain
Roughly one million adults in GB still smoke menthol cigarettes and, with the exception of Wales and young people, there were no noteworthy changes in the post-ban period. There was no indication that the overall persistence of menthol smoking was driven by illicit purchases
Trends in cross-border and illicit tobacco purchases among people who smoke in England, 2019–2022
Despite a fall in cross-border tobacco purchasing during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic among adults in England who smoke, the proportion reporting cross-border tobacco purchases is now three times higher than it was at the start of 2019. The proportion reporting illicit tobacco purchases has not changed substantially
Genealogies of Enslavement and Convictism
This roundtable places academics and family historians together in research and dialogue to co-produce and publish shared knowledge about the past. Focusing on Britain’s penal transportation of enslaved, or formerly enslaved, peoples in the past and the aftermaths of these histories now, we highlight negotiations of history, experiences, and identities in writing about the British empire and its legacies
Facilitators and barriers for harm reduction after first use of novel nicotine delivery devices
This study highlights the need for reliable objective information on the health effects of NNDDs compared with combustible cigarettes, which could facilitate their regular use. Product adjustment such as single use duration alignment with combustible cigarette smoking duration may encourage uptake. Interventions offering opportunity for experience of NNDD use and knowledge dissemination of NNDDs could increase motivation to adopt harm reducing be…
Drinkers like us? The availability of relatable drinking reduction narratives for people with alcohol use disorders
Narratives around alcohol are important in determining how people decide who or what qualifies as problematic alcohol use. Narratives draw on common representations that are subject to influences including historical and normative influences. We argue that there are two dominant narratives that relate to how alcohol use disorder (AUD) is identified and addressed. The first is the historically embedded narrative of alcoholism as disease, and the s…
Exploring changes in temporary abstinence in increasing and higher risk drinkers in England and Dry January participation in users of the Try Dry app in the UK between 2020 and 2021
Higher participation in Dry January 2021 relative to 2020 indicates increased engagement with a period of temporary abstinence following the COVID-19 related lockdowns in England and the UK, which is positive in the wider context of increasing alcohol consumption throughout the pandemic
Study Protocol for a Global Survey
Background: The outbreak of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by a novel coronavirus (named SARS-CoV-2) has gained attention globally and has been recognized as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) by the World Health Organization (WHO) due to the rapidly increasing number of deaths and confirmed cases. Health care workers (HCWs) are vulnerable to this crisis as they are the first frontline to receive and manage COVID-19…
Association between cigarette smoking status and voting intentions
Controlling for a range of other factors, current as compared with never-smokers appear more likely to intend not to vote, to be undecided, to vote for Labour or a non-mainstream party, and less likely to vote for the Liberal Democrats, compared with the Conservative party
A Qualitative Exploration of the Role of Vape Shop Environments in Supporting Smoking Abstinence
E-cigarettes are the most popular method of quitting smoking in England and most are purchased in specialist vape shops. This qualitative study explores how the vape shop environment is experienced by quitters to support smoking abstinence. Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted to elicit experiences of e-cigarette use, including experiences of vape shops, in 40 people who had used e-cigarettes in a quit attempt. Observations of si…

Nicotine and e-cigarettes
E-cigarette puffing patterns associated with high and low nicotine e-liquid strength
The findings will have important implications for public health messaging regarding the relative risks and subjective effects associated with using high and low strength nicotine e-liquid, and for policy makers regarding regulations on nicotine concentrations in e-liquids
