About this trial

The objective of this proposal is to adapt an evidence-based combustible tobacco counseling intervention following an evidence-based process to include e-cigarette use and update its components for emerging adults (EA).

1. Examine factors related to e-cigarette use, barriers to cessation, and facilitators of use of cessation services among an EA population. 2. Beta-test an initial version of the intervention, delivered via video telehealth and telephone, to examine usability and acceptability.
