Evali, anti-vaping advertising, quit attempts, and susceptibility
Adolescent vaping prevalence in the U.S. surged dramatically from 2017 to 2019, then declined significantly, making 2019 an inflection point. Anti-vaping advertising and media reporting on e-cigarette or vaping use-associated lung injury (EVALI) may have contributed to the decline. This study examined whether anti-vaping advertising exposure and EVALI awareness were associated with adolescents’ quit attempts, intentions to quit, and susceptibilit…
Did Philip Morris International use the e-cigarette, or vaping, product use associated lung injury (Evali) outbreak to market Iqos heated tobacco
25 July 2021 will mark the second anniversary1 of the e-cigarette, or vaping, product use associated lung injury (EVALI) outbreak.2 The concerns raised and news media attention focused on EVALI created a fertile environment for the tobacco industry to promote their e-cigarette alternatives,1 3 but this has not been studied. One such product is Philip Morris International’s (PMI) heated tobacco product: ‘IQOS’.4 5 To assess how PMI promoted IQOS i…
A Comparison of E-Cigarette Use Patterns and Smoking Cessation Behavior among Vapers by Primary Place of Purchase
E-cigarette customers differed in significant ways by channels of purchase, most notably in their smoking cessation behaviors. Previous population studies have relied mostly on retail channel data, which accounted for less than 30% of all products sold by 2016. Future studies of e-cigarette use should consider a broader set of channels
Use of electronic cigarettes in smoke-free environments
E-cigarette use in smoke-free environments was common, suggesting that most e-cigarette users do not consider smoke-free laws to apply to e-cigarettes. Explicit laws should be considered if jurisdictions want to prohibit e-cigarette use in public places
Comparison of Smoking Cessation Between Education Groups
Objectives. We examined smoking cessation rate by education and determined how much of the difference can be attributed to the rate of quit attempts and how much to the success of these attempts. Methods. We analyzed data from the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS, 1991–2010) and the Tobacco Use Supplement to the Current Population Survey (TUS-CPS, 1992–2011). Smokers (≥ 25 years) were divided into lower- and higher-education groups (≤ 12 ye…
A Multistate Asian-Language Tobacco Quitline
Objectives. We conducted a dissemination and implementation study to translate an intervention protocol for Asian-language smokers from an efficacy trial into an effective and sustainable multistate service. Methods. Three state tobacco programs (in California, Colorado, and Hawaii) promoted a multistate cessation quitline to 3 Asian-language-speaking communities: Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese. The California quitline provided counseling centra…
Do smokers support smoke-free laws to help themselves quit smoking? Findings from a longitudinal study
Support for smoke-free laws among smokers correlates with past quit attempts and predicts future quitting. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that some smokers support smoke-free laws because the laws could help them quit smoking
Use of a Smokers' Quitline by Asian Language Speakers
Objectives. We examined state quitline utilization by smokers who called Chinese-, Vietnamese-, or Korean-language lines, and compared their usage rates to those of Asians and Whites calling the English-language line. Methods. Using data from 15 years (1993–2008) of operation of the California quitline (which included data on 22 061 callers to Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese lines) and from multiple California Health Interview Surveys, we compute…
Smoking cessation quitlines
Quitlines providing telephone counseling for smoking cessation derive from behavioral research and theory, have been shown to be effective, and have been adopted and then institutionalized at both the state and national levels. Although psychologists have made seminal contributions to quitline development and evaluation, this accomplishment has gone largely unnoticed by the practice and research communities in clinical, counseling, and health psy…
The California Tobacco Control Program’s effect on adult smokers
Successful smoking cessation increased by 25% during the 1990s in the US. Comprehensive tobacco-control programmes were associated with greater cessation success than were with high cigarette prices alone, although both effects were limited to younger adults
Reaching Young Adult Smokers Through Quitlines
This study compared state quitline data (1992–2006) with population survey data to assess use by young adults aged 18 to 24 years. Young adult daily smokers used the service in proportion to their numbers in the state. Young adults responded to mass media quitline promotion, even promotion that did not target them. Women, ethnic minorities, and persons with low income and lower education levels were well represented among young adult quitline cal…
A centralised telephone service for tobacco cessation
A centralised helpline operation can be an accessible and effective service for tobacco users and should be included in any large scale, comprehensive tobacco control program
