INTRODUCTION: Social media has a large amount of e-cigarette content. Little is known about the associations between social media use and a wide range of e-cigarette use behaviors, including susceptibility, initiation, and continued use. We analyzed national data on US adolescents to assess these associations. METHODS: We used data on adolescents participating in the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study Wave 4 (2016-2018) and Wave 5 (2018-2019). We conducted 2 models: 1) a multinomial logistic regression on e-cigarette use susceptibility and use behaviors at Wave 5 by social media use at Wave 4 among adolescents who never used e-cigarettes at Wave 4 and 2) a binomial logistic regression on current e-cigarette use at Wave 5 by social media use at Wave 4 among adolescents who ever used e-cigarettes at Wave 4. RESULTS: Among adolescents who never used e-cigarettes at Wave 4 (n = 7,872), daily social media use (vs never) was associated with a higher likelihood of being susceptible to e-cigarette use (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] =1.46; 95% CI, 1.20-1.78), past e-cigarette use (aOR = 3.55; 95% CI, 2.49-5.06), and current e-cigarette use (aOR = 3.45; 95% CI, 2.38-5.02) at Wave 5. Among adolescents who ever used e-cigarettes at Wave 4 (n = 794), we found no significant association between social media use at Wave 4 and continued e-cigarette use at Wave 5. CONCLUSION: Our study found that social media use is associated with subsequent susceptibility to e-cigarette use and initiation but not with continued use of e-cigarettes among US adolescents. These findings suggest that understanding and addressing the association between social media and e-cigarette use is critical.
简介:社交媒体上有大量电子烟内容。目前人们对于社交媒体的使用与电子烟的各种使用行为(包括使用倾向、开始使用和持续使用)之间的关联知之甚少。我们分析了美国青少年的全国性数据,以评估这些关联。
方法:我们使用了参加“人口烟草与健康评估(PATH)研究”第四波(2016-2018 年)和第五波(2018-2019 年)的青少年的数据。我们进行了 2 项模型分析:1)在第四波中从未使用过电子烟的青少年中,根据第四波中社交媒体的使用情况,对第五波中电子烟使用倾向和使用行为进行多项逻辑回归;2)在第四波中曾使用过电子烟的青少年中,根据第四波中社交媒体的使用情况,对第五波中当前电子烟使用情况进行二项逻辑回归。
结果:在第四波中从未使用过电子烟的青少年中(n=7872),与从不使用社交媒体相比,每天使用社交媒体(aOR=1.46;95%CI,1.20-1.78)与电子烟使用倾向更高相关,过去使用电子烟(aOR=3.55;95%CI,2.49-5.06)和当前使用电子烟(aOR=3.45;95%CI,2.38-5.02)在第五波中更高。在第四波中曾使用过电子烟的青少年中(n=794),我们没有发现第四波中社交媒体的使用与第五波中继续使用电子烟之间存在显著关联。
结论:我们的研究发现,社交媒体的使用与美国青少年对电子烟使用的后续倾向和初始使用相关,但与电子烟的持续使用无关。这些发现表明,理解和解决社交媒体与电子烟使用之间的关联至关重要。
