Canadian university students ( n = 77) who vape regularly were randomized to either PMT or attention control treatment conditions. Data were collected at baseline and 3 time points after the intervention: Day 7, Day 30, and Day 45. Participants assigned to the PMT group showed significant increases in PV, PS, and intentions to vape less ( p ⩽ 0.05) compared to those in the attention control group. Less convincing evidence was found between treatment groups for vaping use. PS and PV predicted vaping intentions, whereas vaping intentions did not predict vaping use. It is suggested through this study that the threat appraisal components of PMT can be successfully manipulated to reduce the intentions to vape and to a lesser extent reduce vaping use among University vapers.}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1461-7277}, pages = {832-845}, orcid-numbers = {Salmani, Babac/0000-0001-8157-840X} } @article{MTMT:34121348, title = {Nicotine dependence and associated factors among persons who use electronic e-cigarettes in Malaysia - an online survey}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34121348}, author = {Sreeramareddy, Chandrashekhar T. and Shroff, Sameeha Misriya and Gunjal, Shilpa}, doi = {10.1186/s13011-023-00558-7}, journal-iso = {SUBST ABUSE TREAT PR}, journal = {SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT PREVENTION AND POLICY}, volume = {18}, unique-id = {34121348}, issn = {1747-597X}, year = {2023}, eissn = {1747-597X} } @article{MTMT:34207974, title = {How do Smokers in a Snus-Prevalent Society Consider E-cigarettes, Snus, and Nicotine Replacement Therapy Products as Relevant Replacements for Cigarettes in the Event They Should Stop Smoking?}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34207974}, author = {Vedøy, T.F. and Lund, K.E.}, doi = {10.1093/ntr/ntad113}, journal-iso = {NICOTINE TOB RES}, journal = {NICOTINE AND TOBACCO RESEARCH}, volume = {25}, unique-id = {34207974}, issn = {1462-2203}, abstract = {Introduction: Around 50 percent of the tobacco in Norway is consumed in the form of snus, a smokeless oral tobacco. We examined Norwegian smokers' openness, and thereby the potential reach, to use e-cigarettes, nicotine replacement therapy products (NRT), and snus in the event of quitting smoking, in a society where snus use is common. Methods: Using data from an online survey of 4073 smokers from 2019 to 2021, we calculated predicted probabilities of smokers' being open, undecided, and not open to use e-cigarettes, snus, and NRT in the event they should quit smoking. Results: Among daily smokers, the probability of being open to use e-cigarettes in the event of quitting smoking was. 32. The corresponding probabilities for using snus and NRT were. 22 and. 19. Snus was the product with the highest probability of not being open (.60). NRT had the highest probability of being undecided (.39). Among smokers who had never used e-cigarettes or snus, the probabilities of being open were. 13 for e-cigarettes,. 02 for snus and. 11 for NRT. Conclusions: In a snus-friendly norm climate where smokers have traditionally used snus as an alternative to cigarettes, the probability of using e-cigarettes in the event of smoking cessation was higher compared to both snus and NRT. However, among smokers who had never used e-cigarettes or snus, the likelihood of being open to use of NRT was similar to e-cigarettes, and higher than snus, which suggests that NRT may still play a role in smoking cessation. Implications: In a snus-prevalent country in the endgame phase of the cigarette epidemic, where robust infrastructure for tobacco control in combination with the availability of snus has reduced smoking to a minimum, the remaining smokers seem to prefer e-cigarettes to snus if they should quit smoking. This indicates that availability of several nicotine alternatives might increase the likelihood of a future product replacement within the small group of remaining smokers. © 2023 The Author(s).
