Abstract

Objective To assess the status of current e-cigarette perception and its influencing factors among adolescents in Shanghai, so as to provide reference for the refinement of the prevention and control measures of teenagers' e-cigarette use. Methods From May to June 2021, a stratified random cluster sampling was used to investigate 7 456 junior high and high school students in Shanghai. Harm and benefit perception of e-cigarette as well as its social-environment benefits were collected. Results The rate of adolescents' ever and current e-cigarette use was 3.19% and 1.09%, respectively. The top four risk factors for low harm perception of e-cigarette were adolescent e-cigarette use(OR=2.74, 95%CI=2.10-3.59), high school students (OR=1.47, 95%CI=1.32-1.64), family members (OR=1.45, 95%CI=1.24-1.70) and friends (OR=1.36, 95%CI=1.20-1.54) using e-cigarette. Adolescent e-cigarette use (OR=2.77, 95%CI=1.97-3.89), high school students(OR=2.11, 95%CI=1.89-2.36), friends (OR=1.63, 95%CI=1.42-1.87) and family members using e-cigarette(OR=1.39, 95%CI=1.18-1.65) were the top four associated factors for high benefit perception of e-cigarette. And, adolescent e-cigarette use (OR=1.95, 95%CI=1.47-2.59), high school students (OR=1.73, 95%CI=1.55-1.93), friends (OR=1.60, 95%CI=1.40-1.82) and pocket money≥200 yuan using e-cigarette(OR=1.29, 95%CI=1.17-1.43) were the top four risk factors for high social-environmental benefit perception of e-cigarette. Moreover, perception of e-cigarette harm, benefit and social-environmental benefit were associated with the risk of future use of e-cigarette(OR=0.78, 1.44, 1.21, P < 0.01). Conclusion Being high school students and using e-cigarette by oneself, friends, and family members are the important influencing factors for adolescents' e-cigarette perception. Both low-harm and high-benefit perception of e-cigarette elevate the risk of future e-cigarette use among adolescents, so effective measures should be taken to promote control education about e-cigarette and smoke-free environment construction.
