Modeling Tobacco Regulatory Impacts in Appalachia Using the Experimental Tobacco Marketplace

Enrolling by invitation · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Tobacco Use, Cigarette Use

In brief

The goal of this project is to look at the effect of proposed tobacco product regulations in Appalachian Kentucky. Appalachian Kentucky is a diverse and underserved rural area that would benefit from more tobacco regulation research. Researchers will study the effects of three proposed tobacco product regulations among users of tobacco products in Appalachian KY. Researchers will also study how degree of rurality effects how those regulations impact behavior. Participants will be asked to complete online surveys and tests, online shopping sessions in a simulated Experimental Tobacco Marketplace, and track their tobacco product use throughout the 9-week experiment.
