DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This research will examine the potential unintended consequences of the recently enacted Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act on adult smokers' and intention to quit. Using newly-inserted items in the 3rd wave of a longitudinal cohort survey of adult smokers (N=4000; 800 African American, 700 Hispanic), the purpose of this research proposal is to test the hypothesis that awareness of FDA legislation is linked to belief that government regulation of cigarettes will create a safer cigarette, thus decreasing smokers' intention to quit (primary outcome), motivation to quit (secondary outcome) and number of 24-hour quit attempts (secondary outcome). It will also examine the potential mediating/moderating effects of psychosocial characteristics on the relationship between "awareness" and "belief" and between "belief" and intention to quit using multiple logistic regression and path analysis. This research will give policymakers and tobacco control researchers a first look as to how smokers interpret government regulation of tobacco products, and may inform the implementation other aspects of the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act. The proposed training program will support the applicant in the completion of her doctoral studies at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, focusing on the effects of policy and consumer perception on smoking behavior. Over the course of two years, Ms. Pearson will complete methods courses in survey development and advanced statistical methods, develop manuscripts with her sponsor and co-sponsor, and complete the proposed research, with the goal of becoming an independent tobacco control researcher. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Tobacco is the leading cause of preventable death and disability in the United States. With data from a large survey of current smokers, this research will investigate the impact of awareness of the FDA's new power to regulate tobacco products on smokers' belief that regulation will create a safer cigarette, thus reducing their motivation to quit. To reduce tobacco's toll on society, there is an urgent need to assess smokers' awareness of and reactions to the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act before the FDA implements the major components of the legislation.

描述（由申请人提供）：这项研究将研究最近制定的家庭吸烟和烟草控制法对成人吸烟者的潜在意外后果和戒烟的意图。 Using newly-inserted items in the 3rd wave of a longitudinal cohort survey of adult smokers (N=4000; 800 African American, 700 Hispanic), the purpose of this research proposal is to test the hypothesis that awareness of FDA legislation is linked to belief that government regulation of cigarettes will create a safer cigarette, thus decreasing smokers' intention to quit (primary outcome), motivation to quit (secondary结果）和24小时退出尝试（次要结果）。它还将研究社会心理特征对“意识”和“信念”之间以及“信念”与使用多个逻辑回归和路径分析辞职之间关系的潜在中介/调节作用。这项研究将使政策制定者和烟草控制研究人员对吸烟者如何解释政府对烟草产品的监管，并可能告知《家庭预防吸烟和烟草控制法》的其他方面。拟议的培训计划将在约翰·霍普金斯彭博公共卫生学院完成博士学位研究中为申请人提供支持，重点关注政策和消费者认识对吸烟行为的影响。在两年的过程中，皮尔森女士将完成调查开发和高级统计方法的方法课程，并与她的赞助商和共同发起人一起开发手稿，并完成拟议的研究，目的是成为独立的烟草控制研究者。 公共卫生相关性：烟草是美国可预防死亡和残疾的主要原因。借助来自当前吸烟者的大量调查的数据，这项研究将调查对FDA对烟草制品的新能力的认识对吸烟者的信念的影响，即监管会造成更安全的香烟，从而减少他们退出的动力。为了减少烟草对社会的损失，迫切需要评估吸烟者对预防家庭吸烟和烟草控制法的意识和反应，然后FDA实现立法的主要组成部分。
