Description
Mohammad Basheer Alameer and colleagues surveyed vape use among Syrian university students in a 2026 study. Vapes are sold as a safer, cleaner swap for smoking. Little was known about their use in Syria. The team shared a web survey on social media with twenty-six questions. More than fifteen hundred students replied. Questions covered what students know, how they feel, and whether they vape.
About one in four students vaped only, and about one in ten vaped and smoked. Friends were the top source of facts about vapes, ahead of media. Good taste was the top draw, then fun. Knowledge scores were low on the whole. Being male, having a parent who smokes, and a lax view of vaping each raised the odds of use. The authors call for awareness drives on campus.
