DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): While cigarette consumption among adults has recently declined, Little Cigar consumption has increased. Evidence suggests that minority young adults, ages 18-25, living in low-income communities use Little Cigars more often than their white peers. This is troubling; Little Cigars have higher levels of cancer-causing substances than cigarettes. Evidence-based interventions are needed to prevent Little Cigar use and reduce cancer risk among these groups. Before interventions are developed measures of Little Cigar use and psychosocial determinants should be developed. The proposed research aims to develop and pilot test measures of Little Cigar use and its psychosocial determinants among racially/ethnically-diverse young adults.

描述（由申请人提供）：虽然成年人的香烟消耗量最近下降了，但雪茄消费量的增加很少。有证据表明，居住在低收入社区的少数年轻人比白人同龄人更频繁地使用雪茄。这很麻烦；与香烟相比，很少有雪茄具有更高水平的引起癌症的物质。需要采取基于证据的干预措施来防止雪茄的使用很少并降低这些群体中的癌症风险。在制定了少量雪茄使用的措施之前，应开发出少量雪茄的方法。拟议的研究旨在制定和试生雪茄使用少量使用及其在种族/种族多样性年轻人中的社会心理决定因素的测试措施。
