PROJECT SUMMARY This K01 application is designed to provide Jessica King, PhD, with the mentored training necessary to transition into an independent tobacco regulatory science researcher. Dr. King will be mentored by a team of renowned tobacco control and tobacco regulatory scientists and will complete mentored training, coursework, and professional development in the areas of advanced statistical analyses, policy impact analyses, and health disparities. This additional career development and mentorship will directly contribute to completing the proposed research strategy, which examines the impact of cigar pack quantity on tobacco use behaviors. Cigar use is the third most commonly used tobacco product among adults, and second most commonly used product among youth, with use increasing among low income, minority, and young adult populations. Given the significant health effects attributable to cigar use, this represents a critical health disparity. Low cost is often cited as a reason for increased use among these populations, in part due to low taxes and varying pack quantities. Research on cigarettes has shown minimum pack quantity laws increase price and decrease use. As of 2016, the FDA has regulatory authority over cigars, allowing it to regulate the marketing, manufacturing, and distribution of cigar products, including mandating minimum pack quantities. However, cigar-specific data are needed to inform FDA's regulation. Thus, the goal of the proposed analyses are to advance understanding of the relationship between cigar pack quantity and tobacco use behaviors to inform regulation on minimum cigar pack quantity. Specifically, we aim to (1) assess whether cigar pack quantity is associated with between- and within-person changes in cigar use and whether there are differences by sociodemographic factors, (2-3) identify the impact of local minimum cigar pack quantity laws on cigar and other tobacco use and cigar sales and whether impacts differ across communities of varying demographics, and (4) characterize differences in the implementation and enforcement of minimum cigar pack quantity laws through qualitative interviews with key implementation personnel. In this mixed-methods approach, we will utilize national datasets, including the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health Study, the Tobacco Use Supplement to the Current Population Survey, the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System, and Nielsen retail scanner data. Each aim will explicitly examine the impact among racial and ethnic minorities, low income populations, youth, and young adults, each vulnerable populations. This research will directly address the FDA Center for Tobacco Products Scientific Domains of behavior and impact analysis. The findings from this study may inform future FDA rulemaking on cigar pack quantity.

项目摘要 该K01应用程序旨在为杰西卡·金（Jessica King）博士提供所需的指导培训 过渡到独立的烟草监管科学研究人员。金博士将由一个团队指导 著名的烟草控制和烟草监管科学家将完成受过指导的培训，课程， 以及高级统计分析，政策影响分析和健康领域的专业发展 差异。这种额外的职业发展和指导将直接有助于完成 拟议的研究策略，研究了雪茄包数量对烟草使用行为的影响。雪茄 使用是成年人中第三大常用的烟草产品，也是第二常用的产品 在年轻人中，低收入，少数群体和年轻人人口的使用增加。鉴于 归因于雪茄的重大健康效应，这代表了至关重要的健康差异。低成本通常是 被认为是增加这些人群使用的原因，部分原因是税收低和不同的包装 数量。关于香烟的研究表明，最低包装法律提高了价格和减少使用。 截至2016年，FDA拥有对雪茄的监管授权，使其能够规范营销，制造业， 和雪茄产品的分布，包括规定最小包装数量。但是，特定于雪茄的数据 需要告知FDA的法规。因此，拟议的分析的目的是提高理解 雪茄背包数量与烟草使用行为之间的关系以最少告知法规 雪茄包数量。具体而言，我们旨在（1）评估雪茄包的数量是否与 雪茄使用的人内部变化以及社会人口统计学因素是否存在差异，（2-3） 确定当地最低雪茄包数量法对雪茄和其他烟草使用和雪茄销售的影响 以及各种人口统计社区的影响是否有所不同，以及（4）表征 通过与 关键实施人员。在这种混合方法的方法中，我们将利用国家数据集，包括 烟草和健康研究的人口评估，烟草使用当前人群的补充 调查，青年风险行为监视系统和尼尔森零售扫描仪数据。每个目标都会明确 研究种族和少数民族，低收入人群，青年和年轻人的影响 脆弱的人群。这项研究将直接介绍FDA烟草产品科学中心 行为和影响分析领域。这项研究的发现可能会为未来的FDA规则制定提供信息 雪茄包数量。
