Study Summary

This trial will test a theory-driven intervention to help young adult e-cigarette users quit smoking. Outcomes will be attentional bias to e-cigarette cues and abstinence from smoking including nicotine dependence, and arousal/urges for e-cigarette use.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for young adults aged 18-29 who exclusively use e-cigarettes (ENDS) and have been doing so for at least 3 months. Participants must own a smartphone but cannot be on medication or psychosocial treatment for ENDS dependence, pregnant, have serious alcohol issues, eye-tracking problems, or current psychiatric treatment for DSM-5 mental health disorders.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests if computerized attentional bias modification training can change how much participants pay attention to e-cigarette cues and help them quit smoking compared to a placebo control group. About 50 young adult e-cigarette users will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups in this controlled trial.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since the interventions involve behavioral training rather than medications, traditional side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience frustration or stress during the tasks.
