Description
Chesmi Kumbalatara and co-authors survey vape and tobacco use in college students in this 2025 study. Vaping spread fast on campuses in the late twenty-tens, and its aerosols carry nicotine plus fine particles. The team asks what drives first use and steady use.
More than five hundred students at one midwestern campus answered an anonymous poll. Half had tried vaping, and two thirds had used some nicotine or cannabis product. Tobacco was most often the first product tried, at a younger age than vaping. Tree and regression models name school year, income, job status, and first-use age as key predictors of steady vaping. The authors urge tailored campus programs.
