Project Summary/Abstract In 2019, nearly 14 of every 100 U.S. adults aged 18 years or older (14.0%) currently smoked cigarettes. Current strategies of tobacco use risk communication include using quantitative information to explain the likelihood that a consequenceof using aproduct will occur (to prevent initiation/encourage cessation) or to explain the reduction of risk when switching products or quitting. Although increasing numeracy (the ability to comprehend numerical information) can increase healthy behaviors, there is a critical barrier in research regarding how numeracy is related to risk understanding and decision-making around tobacco use. There is also a gap regarding how this relationship differs by demographic factors. My overall project goal is to examine the interrelationships among numeracy, risk perception, tobacco product use, cessation, and product switching. These findings will provide evidence for tailored risk communications for individuals with differing numeracy levels. In the F99 phase, we will analyze cross-sectional and longitudinal data to determine whether or not there are associations among numeracy, risk comprehension, and tobacco use behaviors, and if these associations differ by demographic factors. We will use these findings to determine who should be targeted with public health campaigns and how risk should be communicated. In the K00 phase, we aim to find, defend, implement, evaluate, and modify public health campaign strategies to disseminate risk information. Risk communication will be tailored for subpopulations with differing numeracy levels. Numeracy, risk perception, and tobacco-related behaviors are expected to be associated, providing evidence for tailored risk communication for subpopulations with differing numeracy. By identifying which segments of the population have low numeracy (F99 phase), these specific subgroups can be targeted with tailored educational campaigns that communicate risk in a numeracy-level appropriate manner (K00 phase). This project will use both objective and subjective numeracy measures, different types of risk perceptionmeasures, and will look at familiar (e.g., lung cancer) and less familiar (e.g., bladder cancer) tobacco-related health risks. We will analyze data from nationally representative data sets (The Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH), the Health information National Trends Survey (HINTS), and the Program for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC)) which contain demographic, tobacco use, risk perception, and numeracy measures. The proposed studies will explore numeracy and risk perception of tobacco-related diseases and will add to current literature in this area by focusing on its relationship with specific tobacco-related health behaviors: use, cessation, and product switching. This research will advance the field of cancer prevention by exploring how tobacco product risk can best be communicated to groups that need it. These communications will encourage healthy behaviors and decrease tobacco-related disease outcomes (such as cancer). The findings will help to inform who should be targeted with public health campaigns, how risk should be communicated, and whether these campaigns are efficient.

项目摘要/摘要 2019年，目前年龄在18岁或以上（14.0％）的100名美国成年人中，有近14名吸烟。当前的 烟草使用风险交流的策略包括使用定量信息来解释可能性的可能性 将发生使用Aproduct的后果（以防止开始/鼓励停止）或解释减少 切换产品或退出时的风险。虽然增加了算术（理解数值的能力 信息）可以增加健康的行为，关于算术的研究有一个关键的障碍 与围绕烟草使用的风险理解和决策有关。关于这的方式还有一个差距 关系因人口因素而异。我的总体项目目标是检查 算术，风险感知，烟草产品使用，停止和产品切换。这些发现将提供 量身定制的风险通信的证据。在F99阶段，我们 将分析横截面和纵向数据，以确定是否有关联 算术，风险理解和烟草使用行为，如果这些关联因人口统计而有所不同 因素。我们将使用这些发现来确定应该针对谁进行公共卫生运动以及如何针对 应传达风险。在K00阶段，我们旨在查找，辩护，实施，评估和修改公众 健康运动策略以传播风险信息。风险交流将定制 算术水平不同的亚群。算术，风险感知和与烟草相关的行为 预计将有关联，提供量身定制的风险交流的证据 具有不同的算术。通过确定哪些人群的算数较低（F99阶段）， 这些特定的亚组可以针对量身定制的教育运动，以在 计算级适当的方式（k00阶段）。该项目将同时使用客观和主观算术 措施，不同类型的风险感知方法，并将研究熟悉的（例如肺癌）和不熟悉的 （例如，膀胱癌）与烟草有关的健康风险。我们将分析来自国家代表性数据集的数据 （烟草与健康（PATH）的人口评估，《健康信息国家趋势调查》 （提示），以及包含成人能力的国际评估计划（PIAAC） 人口统计学，烟草使用，风险感知和算术措施。拟议的研究将探索 对烟草相关疾病的算术和风险感知，并将通过该领域的当前文献增加 专注于与特定烟草相关的健康行为的关系：使用，停止和产品切换。 这项研究将通过探索烟草产品风险最好的方法来推动预防癌症的领域 与需要它的团体传达。这些沟通将鼓励健康的行为并减少 与烟草相关的疾病结局（例如癌症）。这些发现将有助于告知谁应该成为目标 公共卫生运动，应如何传达风险以及这些运动是否有效。
