Current labels for the nicotine in e-cigarette/vaping products do not sufficiently convey information to the public. The aims of this study include developing and validating two new types of labels for the nicotine in vaping products: nicotine concentration and nicotine flux (reflecting nicotine emissions). Investigators will survey youth (ages 14-20) and adults (ages 21+ \[21 is the legal age to purchase tobacco products in the U.S.\]) to evaluate the utility of several new labels investigators have developed.
Youth* (14-20 years) or an adults (21 years and older)
The legal age for purchasing tobacco in the U.S. is 21 years. Therefore, ages for youth and adults were split at the legal age for purchase.
