Abstract:
Despite interest in quitting vaping among young adults (YAs), little is known about characteristics of e-cigarette (EC) users seeking treatment. In this study, YAs aged 18-24 living in the United States interested in vaping cessation treatment were recruited to complete an online survey regarding demographics and EC use. Primary eligibility criteria were EC use on at least 20 days per month (no other tobacco use), and interest in quitting in the next month. We report descriptive statistics for those who did and did not complete a mandatory coaching call (n = 981). In this sample, most EC users reported high nicotine dependence, a history of unsuccessful quit attempts (including 29.4% with previous NRT use), along with stress, anxiety, and depression. There were few meaningful differences in demographics, EC use behaviors, or behavioral health factors between those who engaged with a phone coaching call (fully enrolled in study; n = 508), and those who did not (n = 473). YAs demonstrated interest in vaping cessation support, but there were no clear characteristics for the half who did not complete a coaching call. Vaping cessation program designers should consider tailoring for the self-reported behavioral health concerns present in this population.
摘要:
尽管有兴趣在年轻人(YAs)中戒烟,人们对寻求治疗的电子烟(EC)使用者的特征知之甚少。在这项研究中,居住在美国的18-24岁的YAs对戒毒治疗感兴趣,他们被招募来完成关于人口统计学和EC使用的在线调查。主要资格标准是每月至少20天使用EC(无其他烟草使用),并有兴趣在下个月辞职。我们报告了那些做和没有完成强制性教练电话的描述性统计数据(n=981)。在这个样本中,大多数欧共体使用者报告高度依赖尼古丁,尝试退出失败的历史记录(包括先前使用NRT的29.4%),随着压力,焦虑,和抑郁症。人口统计学上几乎没有什么有意义的差异,EC使用行为,或行为健康因素之间的电话教练电话(完全参加研究;n=508),和那些没有(n=473)。YAs表现出对戒烟支持的兴趣,但是对于一半没有完成教练电话的人来说,没有明确的特征。Vaping戒烟计划设计师应考虑针对该人群中自我报告的行为健康问题进行调整。
