New online tool aims to curb teen vaping and prevent smoking
NCT ID NCT07624292
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a brief digital program can help teenagers ages 12-17 who vape reduce their e-cigarette use and lower their risk of starting to smoke cigarettes. About 150 teens in California will take online surveys over 12 weeks, and some will also do a virtual interview to share their thoughts. The goal is to see if the online program works better than simply waiting for help.
