Introduction: IQOS was authorized to be marketed as a reduced exposure product by the Food and Drug Administration in October 2020 during the global COVID-19 pandemic. Those who smoke may be more sensitive to reduced exposure marketing claims and may have an increased inclination toward IQOS use. We evaluated the likelihood of trying and purchasing IQOS as a function of exposure to ads, product appeal, and COVID-19 risk perceptions using the orig…

This study aimed to test the difference in visual attention to flavor names and other packaging elements on cigarillo products as well as recall of these packaging e…
Cigar-Specific Health Warnings
Understanding the best performing health warnings is a crucial strategy to share accurate information on the risks of tobacco use. Our findings suggest that the warning on cancer risk even without inhaling drew the greatest visual attention and highest rating of perceived effectiveness among this sample of young adult cigarillo users and non-users
The Role of Cigarillo Flavor in the Co-Use of Cigarillos and Cannabis among Young Adults
Background: Research suggests flavor facilitates cigarillo use, but it is unknown if flavor impacts patterns of co-use of cigarillos and cannabis (“co-use”), which is common among young adult smokers. This study’s aim was to determine the role of the cigarillo flavor in co-use among young adults. Methods: Data were collected (2020-2021) in a cross-sectional online survey administered to young adults who smoked ≥2 cigarillos/week (N = 361), recrui…
Dissonance in Young Adult Cigarillo Users’ Categorization of Concept Flavored and Unflavored Products
This study asks young adult cigarillo users to categorize their preferred flavor in order to examine user consensus and potential methodological and regulatory implications of flavor name-based categorization systems. Young adult (21-28 years) cigarillo users ( n = 426) named and categorized their favorite cigarillo flavor into one of seven categories: Fruit, Sweet and Candy, Mint, Alcohol, Menthol, Tobacco, and Other. Flavor responses were coded…
Cigarillo Flavor and Motivation to Quit among Co-Users of Cigarillos and Cannabis
Flavored cigar restrictions have the potential to benefit public health. Flavor availability facilitates cigarillo use, but it is unknown if flavor impacts patterns of co-use of cigarillos and cannabis, an increasingly prevalent behavior among young adults. Data were collected (2020-2021) in a cross-sectional online survey administered to a convenience sample of young adults who smoked cigarillos from 15 areas with high cigar use prevalence. We a…
Flavour loyalty may predict cessation or substitution following a cigarillo flavour ban among young adults in the USA
Individuals who display strong flavour preferences were more likely to say they would discontinue use or seek out alternative flavoured products following a ban on flavoured cigarillos
Multifactorial Etiology of Adolescent Nicotine Addiction
Nicotine is the primary pharmacologic component of tobacco, and its highly addictive nature is responsible for its widespread use and significant withdrawal effects that result in challenges to smoking cessation therapeutics. Nicotine addiction often begins in adolescence and this is at least partially attributed to the fact that adolescent brain is most susceptible to the neuro-inflammatory effects of nicotine. There is increasing evidence for t…
Pulling Your Mask down to Smoke
Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic may have resulted in a change in life routines for tobacco users, but little is known about the rationale underlying these changes. Methods: A convenience sample of young adults ages 21–28 (n = 29) were recruited online May–July 2020 to participate in semi-structured interviews about nicotine use behaviors specific to cigarillos and e-cigarettes. Audio-recorded interviews were 60–90 min long and were conducted …

Flavor Inconsistencies between Flavored Tobacco Products among US Adults
Objective: Banning flavors in some tobacco products, while allowing them in others, may shift consumer preferences towards products in which flavors are still allowed. In this study, we examine flavor popularity and inconsistencies in flavor preference across non-cigarette tobacco products among US adults. Methods: We used data from the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health Study Wave 3 to assess the prevalence of flavor preference for user…

Rural Versus Urban Use of Traditional and Emerging Tobacco Products in the United States, 2013–2014
Objectives. To examine urban–rural differences in US prevalences of traditional and emerging tobacco product use as well as dual or polytobacco use of these products. Methods.

We estimated weighted prevalences of adult tobacco use across urban–rural geographies and examined prevalences classified by gender, poverty level, and region of t…
