The purpose of this study was to explore sharing behavior among college students who use e-cigarettes.
A convenience sample of current e-cigarette users answered questionnaire items regarding sharing behavior (e.g., the number of people that have shared e-cigarettes, the settings that sharing takes place, reasons for sharing).
Of the 121 participants, 24% shared e-cigarettes every day and 76% shared some days. The most common setting (91%) for sharing was at social gatherings, and participants shared most often (52%) with one or two people, which happened most often (99%) with friends. The top reason (80%) for sharing e-cigarettes was to feel the effects of nicotine.
The finds support the need to address sharing behavior in youth e-cigarette use and the need for more stringent e-cigarette policies and cessation resources.
本研究旨在探讨使用电子烟的大学生的分享行为。
采用便利抽样法,对当前电子烟使用者进行问卷调查,了解他们的分享行为(如分享电子烟的人数、分享的场所、分享的原因等)。
在 121 名参与者中,24%的人每天分享电子烟,76%的人有时分享。最常见的分享场所(91%)是社交聚会,参与者最常与一两个人分享(52%),最常与朋友分享(99%)。分享电子烟的主要原因(80%)是为了感受尼古丁的效果。
这些发现支持了在青少年电子烟使用中解决分享行为的必要性,以及需要更严格的电子烟政策和戒烟资源。
