We used data from the 2016 and 2017 SummerStyles survey (N = 4,186 and 4,066, respectively) to assess US adults' perceptions about the harms of nicotine in electronic vapor products (EVP) to the developing adolescent brain. Of respondents in 2016, 68.5% agreed exposure to nicotine in EVP was harmful, and of respondents in 2017, 62.6% agreed (P < .001). This agreement varied by several covariates. Continued efforts are warranted to educate the public about the risks of EVP use among youth, including the harmful effects of nicotine exposure on the developing adolescent brain.
我们使用了 2016 年和 2017 年夏季风格调查的数据(分别为 N=4186 和 4066),评估了美国成年人对电子蒸气产品(EVP)中尼古丁对发育中青少年大脑危害的看法。在 2016 年的受访者中,68.5%的人同意 EVP 中尼古丁的暴露是有害的,而在 2017 年的受访者中,62.6%的人同意(P<0.001)。这种认同因几个协变量而异。需要继续努力,向公众宣传青少年使用 EVP 的风险,包括尼古丁暴露对发育中青少年大脑的有害影响。
