Abstract:
In this study we provide information on e-cigarette use characteristics in relation to racial and ethnic characteristics in a sample of 535 adult e-cigarette users. We also evaluated how anxiety sensitivity (AS; fear of anxiety) interacted with race/ethnicity to predict vaping outcomes. We found an association between greater AS and higher e-cigarette dependence for White, but not Black, participants. A similar trend was observed for level of risk perception. Also, Hispanic status was associated with higher perception of e-cigarette benefits. Overall, the present study contributes to the understanding of factors linked to e-cigarette use.
