PATH Study New Use by Wave 4 (2016-Jan 2018) Among Wave 1 (2013–2014) Never Users of Each Product
1A number of W1 youth never users of a product were missing item-level data for tobacco use status at W2–W4 (n=14 cigarette, n=48 ENDS, n=67 any cigar, n=44 pipe tobacco, n=26 hookah, n=181 any smokeless tobacco). A number of W1 young adult never users of a product were missing item-level data for tobacco use status at W2–W4 (n<5 cigarette, n=37 ENDS, n=0 any cigar, n<5 pipe tobacco, n<5 hookah, n=12 any smokeless tobacco).
2 This figure includes youth (12–17 years) and young adults (18–24 years) who had never used the specific product in question but may have used other products in the past.
3 Raw n’s, weighted n’s and weighted percentages are available in Supplemental Table 2.
4
Any cigar use = respondents who had ever used any of the three types of cigars (traditional cigars, cigarillos, and filtered cigars)
5
Any smokeless tobacco use = respondents who had ever used either snus pouches or other smokeless tobacco, not including dissolvable tobacco (which was asked as a separate category)
6 Due to the small number of new dissolvable tobacco users at W4, dissolvable tobacco has been removed from the figure.
