Social Media Engagement and Quit Intentions Among Youth With Exclusive E-cigarette Use: The Moderating Role of Social Norms
Our study highlights the interplay between social media engagement, descriptive and injunctive social norms of vaping, and intention to quit e-cigarette use among youth who exclusively use e-cigarettes. These insights are crucial for designing effective, targeted social media-based cessation interventions, promoting quitting intentions, and addressing misperceptions about vaping, thereby supporting youth cessation behaviors.
