“…3,8 Our analysis yielded smoking trajectory classes consistent with previous studies using similar methods, supporting the validity of our findings. 18,19,40,41 An important contribution of our study is the attention to nicotine dependence in identifying adolescent smoking trajectories. One study examined how nicotine-dependence symptoms develop among adolescent smokers, concluding that parental smoking increases the risk of early-onset dependence.…”

“…High initiation levels of TNCPs may be due to demographic (mostly male, low income) and psychosocial (risk taking, high alcohol consumption) risk factors that are prevalent among military personnel. 10,12,13 Additionally, several environmental factors, such as tobacco industry promotional efforts, the availability of low cost tobacco products in military exchanges and commissaries, and the high stress deployment environment, are other likely contributors to these high levels of initiation. 10,14 Although the military represents a specific population of interest, the public health implications of TNCP use in the military is considerable; the US military is the nation's largest employer, employing approximately 1.4 million active duty personnel and over 700 000 civilian personnel.…”

Introduction: Although there is increasing attention to the prevalence of new and emerging tobacco products in the civilian population, remarkably little is known about the current prevalence of these products in a military population. Methods: The current investigation was designed to determine the prevalence of tobacco and nicotine containing products (TNCP) and correlates of use across multiple cohorts of trainees undergoing Technical Training in the US Air Force between April 2013 and December 2014. Chi-square test, Cochran-Armitage test for linear trend, and logistic regression models were applied to test differences and linear trends across time for TNCP use as well as correlates of use in a cross-sectional sample of 13 685 Airmen (final analytic sample). Results: Over a quarter (26.9%) of Airmen reported regular use of a TNCP. The two most prevalent products were cigarettes (11.2%) and hookah (10.5%). Among correlates of use, Airmen that regularly use TNCPs were more likely to be male, younger, non-Hispanic white, and single with a high school degree or General Education Development. Hookah was the most endorsed for intentions to use, and along with e-cigarettes, had the lowest perception of harm. While prevalence of most products remained constant across entering cohorts, the prevalence of e-cigarettes showed significant linear increase. Conclusions:The prevalence of TNCP use is high across cohorts of Airmen. Remarkably high estimates of future intentions to use and low perceptions of harm for emerging products suggest that intervention efforts should be directed at multiple forms of TNCP use to address this important public health issue.

“…These models have the ability to differentiate those who abstain from other potential subgroups of substance users. Previous studies of adolescent substance use have identified between two and eight different trajectory classes of alcohol, tobacco, or marijuana use during adolescence (Cheadle & Sittner Hartshorn, 2012;Cheadle & Whitbeck, 2011;Eassey et al, 2015;Hampson et al, 2013;Huang et al, 2013;Juon et al, 2011;Lynne-Landsman et al, 2010Whitesell et al, 2014). Variation in the number of classes identified is the result of differences in model specifications, age ranges evaluated, frequency of assessments, and other sample-specific factors.…”

ABSTRACT. Objective: This research examines gender and racial/ ethnic differences in substance use trajectories during early adolescence among American Indian and non-Native adolescents. Method: Substance use trajectories were evaluated among 684 adolescents (50% female, 51% American Indian) across five assessments over 9th and 10th grades. Youth were drawn from six rural towns within the Cherokee Nation, a nonreservation tribal jurisdiction that includes a high proportion of American Indians embedded within a predominantly White population. Past-month substance use was based on self-report and was dichotomized into "used" versus "did not use," with the exception of alcohol, which was trichotomized into "none," "1 or 2 days," or "3-30 days." Results: Using growth mixture modeling with full-information maximum-likelihood estimation, we determined that between two and three different trajectory classes best described the data for each substance. Males had a higher probability compared with females of following a trajectory of chewing tobacco use (20% vs. 6%, respectively) and using multiple substances (24% vs. 19%, respectively). Females had a higher probability compared with males of following a trajectory of prescription drug misuse (11% vs. 6%, respectively). Individuals who followed trajectories of alcohol use or heavy drinking were also more likely to follow trajectories of other substance use. Conclusions: Identifying gender and racial/ethnic differences in patterns of substance use at this stage of development will inform gender-sensitive and ethnically sensitive prevention programs targeting specific substance use. These results will be particularly informative given the lack of evidence regarding trajectories of substance initiation within largely American Indian populations. (J. Stud.

Smoking Trajectories Across High School: Sensation Seeking and Hookah Use

Abstract: introduction: This study investigated the associations of trajectories of cigarette smoking over the high school years with the prior development of childhood sensation seeking and the subsequent use of cigarettes and hookah at age 20/21.
