目的:我们研究了2014年至2015年间青少年中电子烟的获取来源以及这些来源的变化。我们还评估了青少年是否曾被拒绝销售电子烟。方法:2014年和2015年在康涅狄格州的五所高中进行了匿名横断面调查,评估了人口统计学、电子烟和卷烟使用情况,以及电子烟获取来源(朋友/男朋友/女朋友、烟草商店、兄弟姐妹、在线、父母/成年家庭成员,其他)。我们将分析限制在过去一个月内使用电子烟的18岁以下青少年(2014年:N = 400, 2015年:N = 390)。结果:购买电子烟的主要来源是朋友(2014年:50.2%,2015年:45.4%)、烟草商店(2014年:17.5%,2015年:12.6%)和网上商店(2014年:9.8%,2015年:10.5%)。一个多层模型,控制了性别、年龄和吸烟状况,同时按学校聚类显示,2014年至2015年间,青少年从朋友那里获得电子烟的比例下降(AOR = 0.84)。2015年,分别有69.8%和85.8%的人从实体店和网上商店购买电子烟。结论:同龄人是最受欢迎的电子烟购买来源。许多青少年能够从商业渠道购买电子烟。未来的研究应该继续对青少年从哪里获得电子烟进行监测,为预防策略提供信息。
OBJECTIVES: We examined sources of e-cigarette acquisition among youth, and changes in these sources, between 2014 and 2015. We also assessed whether youth were ever refused the sale of e-cigarettes.METHODS: Anonymous, cross-sectional surveys conducted in five high schools in 2014 and 2015 in Connecticut assessed demographics, e-cigarette and cigarette use, and e-cigarette acquisition sources (friends/boyfriends/girlfriends, tobacco shops, siblings, online, parents/adult family members, other). We restricted analyses to adolescents younger than 18 years old who had used e-cigarettes in the past month (2014: N = 400, 2015: N = 390).RESULTS: Top sources of e-cigarette acquisition were friends (2014: 50.2%, 2015: 45.4%), tobacco shops (2014: 17.5%, 2015: 12.6%), and online shops (2014: 9.8%, 2015: 10.5%). A multilevel model, controlling for sex, age, and cigarette smoking status, while clustering by schools showed a decrease in the proportion of youth obtaining e-cigarettes from friends (AOR = .84) between 2014 and 2015. In 2015, 69.8% and 85.8% purchased e-cigarettes from a physical store and an online store, respectively.CONCLUSIONS: Peers were the most popular source of e-cigarette acquisition. Many adolescents were able to purchase e-cigarettes from commercial sources. Future studies should continue to conduct surveillance of where adolescents obtain e-cigarettes to inform prevention strategies.
