What the study is about

The purpose of this study is to present social media posts with varying combinations of flavor types and mentions of stealth use, to adolescents and determine whether these message characteristics increase adolescents' perceptions of these products and susceptibility to using these products.

Being studied: Each intervention will be a picture of a social media post. The posts will vary (in a 3X2 factorial design) the type of flavor described and whether concealability is described.

Conditions: Perceptions of Tobacco Products
