Differences in Peer Norm Perceptions Before and After E-Cigarette Initiation Among Youth and Young Adults
BACKGROUND: We aim to elucidate differences in peer norm perceptions before and after e-cigarette initiation among young people over time. METHODS: We used data from initially e-cigarette naïve participants in the Truth Longitudinal Survey (TLC), a nationally representative longitudinal dataset of youth and young adults spanning Fall/Winter 2020 and Fall/Winter 2022. We used repeated measures mixed effects models to examine changes in reported pe…
Pathway from Exposure to an E-Cigarette Prevention Social Media Campaign to Increased Quitting Intentions: A Randomized Trial Among Young Adult E-Cigarette Users
In 2022, 26-31% of young adults reported using e-cigarettes in the previous 30 days. Research supports the effectiveness of mass media health campaigns in changing targeted attitudes and behaviors regarding nicotine use. However, the effect of social media campaigns and the pathway through which they change attitudes and behaviors require more research. This randomized controlled experiment examines the pathway through which exposure to an e-ciga…
Responses to e-cigarette nicotine source descriptors: Results from a randomised experiment
Nicotine source descriptors, especially "non-tobacco nicotine" and among past 30-day e-cigarette users, may reduce harm and addictiveness perceptions for e-cigarettes. Marketing regulations of nicotine source descriptors may be needed

Testing the effectiveness of the Developing Inclusive Youth program: A multisite randomized control trial
The Developing Inclusive Youth program is a classroom-based, individually administered video tool that depicts peer-based social and racial exclusion, combined with teacher-led discussions. A multisite randomized control trial was implemented with 983 participants (502 females; 58.5% White, 41.5% Ethnic/racial minority; Mage = 9.64 years) in 48 third-, fourth-, and fifth-grade classrooms across six schools. Children in the program were more likel…
Who needs innate ability to succeed in math and literacy? Academic-domain-specific theories of intelligence about peers versus adults
Individuals' implicit theories of intelligence exist on a spectrum, from believing intelligence is fixed and unchangeable, to believing it is malleable and can be improved with effort. A belief in malleable intelligence leads to adaptive responses to challenge and higher achievement. However, surprisingly little is known about the development of academic-domain-specific theories of intelligence (i.e., math vs. reading and writing). The authors ex…
