Abstract
Background Over 20 states and local jurisdictions in the U.S. have imposed e-cigarette taxes. It is important to evaluate how adult vapers, including those who also smoke respond to e-cigarette taxation. The purpose of this study is to examine factors associated with adult vapers’ cost perception of e-cigarettes relative to cigarettes and budget allocations between two products.
