NCT ID NCT06919276
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how different labels on vaping devices (like 'contains nicotine' or 'high potency') affect teens' interest in trying them, their views on health risks, and what effects they expect. Over 3,000 high school students viewed images of vaping devices with various labels and answered questions. The goal is to understand which labels might discourage use and inform future public health messaging.
