Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Tobacco Susceptibility assessed by Likert scale questions drawn primarily from the global youth tobacco survey
Tobacco susceptibility captures the likelihood of using tobacco in the future. It will be assessed by likert scale questions drawn primarily from the global youth tobacco survey. It will be analyzed as a continuous variable that will be standardized, so outcomes will represent standard deviation unit differences in tobacco susceptibility.
