“…Increasingly, these animal studies are assessing molecular mechanisms underlying these long-term behavioral changes, which may provide insight into possible therapeutic strategies to reduce long-term adverse effects of teen nicotine use. These preclinical findings suggest that teen nicotine vaping may result in similar long-term deleterious effects, and are consistent with recent observations of linkages between vaping and substance use, mental health problems and impulsivity (Grant et al, 2019;Roys et al, 2019). Thus, further longitudinal assessment of health outcomes in teen and young adult e-cigarette users is warranted.…”

Adolescence is a time of major plasticity of brain systems that regulate motivated behavior and cognition, and is also the age of peak onset of nicotine use. Although there has been a decline in teen use of cigarettes in recent years, there has been a huge increase in nicotine vaping. It is therefore critically important to understand the impact of nicotine on this critical phase of brain development. Animal studies have shown that nicotine has unique effects on adolescent brain. The goal of this review is therefore to systematically evaluate age-and sex-differences in the effects of nicotine on brain and behavior. Both acute and chronic effects of nicotine on brain biochemistry and behavior, particularly drug reward, aversion, cognition and emotion, are evaluated. Gaps in our current knowledge that need to be addressed are also highlighted. This review compares and integrates human and animals findings. Although there can be no experimental studies in humans to confirm similar behavioral effects of teen nicotine exposure, an emerging observational literature suggests similarities across species. Given the substantial evidence for long-term negative impact of adolescent nicotine exposure on brain and behavior, further longitudinal assessment of health outcomes in teen and young adult e-cigarette users is warranted.

“…Hernandez et al, (2020) found that problem drinkers had a weak self-esteem showing a little or no social phobia. College students tend to drink alcohol due to anxieties (Smith, 2020), having overslept, missing the examination (Dumbili, 2020), and using ecigarettes (Roys et al, 2020). Problem drinkers are vivid and susceptible in women (Hahn et al, 2020;Rose et al, 2020) as detected by dietary self-monitoring (Hahn et al, 2020) and more reported negative consequence incidents, such as sexual assault and harassment (Rose et al, 2020).…”

Alcohol is widely used in the world. Either for happiness or resolving problems, college students continue to have interaction with alcoholic drinks. This paper was aimed to examine the connection between alcohol intake and scholastic performance of second-year college students who took Physical Education subject in Davao Oriental State College of Science and Technology. The authors employed descriptive-correlational design with 115 students as samples out of 377 participated respondents. One set of adopted, contextualized, and tested 15-items of types of drinker instrument gaining excellent Cronbach’s alpha was used. Academic grades had been acquired and generated from an electronic database school system for academic records of the students. The findings discovered that the general level of alcohol consumption of the students was moderate, while the overall educational performance score was generally determined as satisfactory. The students aged 15 to 17 years gained f value 6758.46 (p0.01), while the students aged 18 to 20 years gained f=3564.71 (p0.01). Each of the result defined the sizable distinction within the alcohol consumption of college students. Meanwhile, the investigation also observed an extensive distinction in the level of alcohol use analyzed by gender (f=1780.55; p0.01). Courses and study time parameters did not show statistically significant difference in alcohol consumption. Finally, alcohol intake was not significantly correlated to instructional performance. Furthermore, the problem and high-risk of drinking in students had been found out for the maximum salience of the study. A functional and sustainable moral recovery program of each school organization that includes risk assessment, alcohol and drug education, mental health, physical exercises, games and sports, and recreational activities is recommended.

“…Research has shown that many perceive e-cigarette use as beneficial to quitting smoking and that e-cigarettes are less harmful than cigarettes, thus contributing to increased experimentation with e-cigarettes (Choi and Forster, 2014;Pearson et al, 2012;Romijnders et al, 2018). Studies have demonstrated that perceptions of the benefits of e-cigarette use are associated with having tried e-cigarettes and higher levels of problematic alcohol use (Roys et al, 2014). For adolescents, risk perceptions regarding the harm of e-cigarettes and their potential benefits can change with exposure to additional information regarding the harmful effects of use (Moutstafa et al, 2021).…”

PurposeThis study is a formative evaluation of an adolescent online e-cigarette prevention program (Clearing the Vapor) giving attention to identifying higher risk adolescent populations, confirming the theory of change, and assessing short-term outcomes.Design/methodology/approachThe evaluation was conducted using online pre-test and post-test survey data collected from adolescent program participants age 10–18 from 2019 to 2021. Analyses included risk ratios on perceived risk, self-efficacy, and behavioral intentions across demographic variables. Pre-test and post-test comparisons were conducted with analysis involving the t-test and the McNemar test.FindingsPrevalence of e-cigarette use was higher among males, older adolescents, and in racial/ethnic groups other than Whites and Asians. Adolescents with lower confidence to say “no” were more likely to use e-cigarettes. Greater perception of harm by using e-cigarettes increased the likelihood of adolescents feeling competent to explain to peers the harmful effects of e-cigarettes. Mean change in commitment levels to not use e-cigarettes increased for males and females, all ages, and racial/ethnic groups other than non-Hispanic Blacks and American Indians. Improvement in non-Hispanic Whites was significantly greater than for non-Hispanic Blacks, American Indians, and Hispanics.Originality/valueImprovement in programming should give careful attention to the incorporation of more prevention activities and to materials tailored specifically to racial/ethnic participants. As a theory of change, findings support the utility of the Clearing the Vape prevention programming to address perceptions of harm that e-cigarettes are safe, confidence in explaining the harmful effects of use, and the development of skills to resist use.
