摘要

人们很少关注对围绕电子烟使用的语言的理解。研究人员使用了诸如电子烟使用者或 ENDS 等术语,但在学术著作之外使用的语言却相对缺乏研究。因此,本研究考察了大学生在提及使用电子烟的人时所使用的语言。美国南部一所大学的大学生(人数=1037;年龄=20.67,标准差=3.81;72.1%为女性;69.6%为白人)回答了一个开放式问题:"您如何称呼使用电子烟的人?在 1086 个回答中,分别研究了电子烟使用者(n = 591)和非使用者(n = 495)的回答。尽管使用者和非使用者有相同的两个首要术语("吸食者 "和 "吸烟者"),但在使用者中存在更明确的共识,即 "吸食者 "最常见(51.3%),其次是 "吸烟者"(21.0%)。在非使用者中,分别有 37.0%和 31.5%的人赞同这些词语。使用者的第三大回答与上瘾有关(如 "瘾君子"、"恶魔";8.46%),而非使用者的回答则表示他们不知道如何称呼电子烟使用者(如 "我不知道";7.1%)。电子烟使用者使用褒义词(如 "Vape God")和贬义词(如 "傻瓜")的可能性相当,而非使用者使用贬义词的可能性几乎是褒义词的六倍。因此,在健康宣传活动中利用这些语言趋势以及为使用者和非使用者分别制定信息可能是有益的。

Vape Gods, Vape Lords, and Fiends: The Language of Vaping
Little attention has been devoted to understanding the language surrounding e-cigarette use. Researchers employ terms such as users of e-cigarettes or ENDS, but language employed outside scholarly writing is relatively unexamined. Thus, this study examined the language used by college students to refer to people who use e-cigarettes. College students (N = 1037; Mage= 20.67, SD = 3.81; 72.1% female; 69.6% White) at a southern U.S. university responded to the open-ended question: “What do you call a person who uses e-cigarettes?” Of 1086 responses, e-cigarette users’ (n = 591) and nonusers’ (n = 495) responses were examined separately. Although users and nonusers had the same two top terms (“vaper” and “smoker”), a clearer consensus existed among users where “vaper” was most common (51.3%) followed by “smoker” (21.0%). These same terms were endorsed by 37.0% and 31.5% of nonusers, respectively. The third most popular responses of users related to addiction (e.g., “addict”, “fiend”; 8.46%), whereas nonusers’ responses indicated they did not know what to call an e-cigarette user (e.g., “I don’t know”; 7.1%). Users were equally likely to use positive (e.g., “Vape God”) and negative (e.g., “fool”) terms, whereas nonusers were nearly six times more likely to use negative terms. Therefore, it may be useful to capitalize on these language trends in health campaigns as well as develop separate messaging for users vs. nonusers.
