Title: Association of e-cigarette advertising with e-cigarette and cigarette use among US adults. Author: Ali FRM, Dave DM, Colman GJ, Wang X, Saffer H, Marynak KL, Dench D, Grossman M. Journal: Addiction; 2021 May; 116(5):1212-1223. PubMed ID: 33271632. Abstract: AIMS: To estimate the association of e-cigarette advertisement exposure with e-cigarette and cigarette use behavior among US adults. DESIGN: Data from the 2013-14 National Adult Tobacco Survey (NATS) were linked to Kantar Media and National Consumer Study data to construct measures of e-cigarette advertisements on TV and in magazines. The relationship between advertisement measures and outcomes was estimated using logistic and Poisson regressions, controlling for socio-demographics, state cigarette taxes and state and year fixed-effects. SETTING: United States. PARTICIPANTS/CASES: A total of 98 746 adults aged ≥ 18 years who responded to the 2013-14 NATS. MEASUREMENTS: The independent variables of interest were the number of e-cigarette advertisements in magazines to which an adult was exposed in the past 6 months and the number of e-cigarette advertisements on TV to which an adult was exposed in the past 6 months. Outcomes were awareness of e-cigarettes, ever e-cigarette use, current e-cigarette use, current cigarette use and number of cigarettes smoked per month. FINDINGS: Exposure to one additional e-cigarette advertisement on TV was associated with a 0.18, 0.13 and 0.03 percentage point increase, respectively, in awareness, ever use and current use of e-cigarettes among all adults (P < 0.05). This exposure also was associated with a 0.11 percentage point increase in current cigarette use among all adults and an increase in cigarette consumption of 2.24 cigarettes per month among adults aged ≥ 45 (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Exposure to e-cigarette advertising appears to be positively associated with the use of e-cigarettes and cigarettes among adults of all ages, and with increased cigarette consumption among older adults.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
