When, How, & Where Tobacco Initiation and Relapse Occur During U.S. Air Force Technical Training.
CONCLUSIONS: Tobacco use behaviors during Technical Training differed depending on the type of product. Specifically, new and emerging products were more likely to be bought off base and first used at a specialty store. Thus, military polices regulating on base tobacco pricing might not reduce the growing prevalence of e-cigarettes. Future policies might consider addressing the density of off-base tobacco retailers to reduce the high rates of tobacco use in this population.
