Study Details

The purpose of this study is to develop an electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) counter-marketing lesson for adolescents. The lesson will involve short videos designed to improve adolescents' cognition of e-cigarette marketing in the retail environment with the overall goal of reducing their susceptibility to use, intent to use, and actual use of e-cigarettes. Through this study, the study team will identify and refine the key messages that would make this lesson acceptable, feasible to implement, and effective in altering e-cigarette-related perceptions and potentially behaviors.
