Description
Connor Richard Miller and co-authors warn that surveys may mismeasure the use of heated tobacco products, in a paper published in 2023. These products warm tobacco instead of burning it, and they sit beside vaping products on store shelves.
The authors argue that the two product classes look so alike that users may report the wrong one. Shifting ways of using cannabis add more confusion. Wrong answers could distort the data that health policy rests on. The paper suggests fixes, such as plain descriptions in surveys that separate the classes, and follow-up questions that probe past the first answer. Until checks are done, the authors urge care in reading survey results.
