Add to My Toolkit
Description

This protocol includes questions from the Wave 7 Adult Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Survey instrument. These specific questions are used to measure the purchase location of hookah tobacco.

Specific Instructions

This protocol was systematically updated to reflect the Wave 7 data collection of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study. This protocol will be formally reviewed by a TRR Content Expert Panel early in 2024.

In order to answer these questions, investigators will need to determine whether or not the respondent is a current hookah or shisha tobacco user. To do so, the Working Group is recommending that investigators add the Use of Tobacco Products Toolkit measure.

Selection Rationale

The Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study is a nationally representative, in-person longitudinal cohort study of nonusers and users of tobacco products and those at risk for tobacco use across the United States. Respondents 12 years old and up are asked questions on tobacco use, attitudes, and health, and biospecimens (buccal cell, urine, and blood) are collected from adults. The PATH Study was implemented to provide an evidence base for assessing and monitoring Food and Drug Administration’s regulatory actions in meeting its mandate under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act. Regulatory domains include product standards, new and modified risk products, health warnings, and health education campaigns.
