May 20, 2024

Be Part of Clinical Research at Yale

E-cigarette Appeal and Addiction

The purpose of this study is to examine how different e-cigarette cooling flavors can influence adults’ sensory experience. Study procedures will include an intake visit to determine if you are eligible and one lab session. At the lab session, we will ask participants to sample 16 different e-liquids, without nicotine but with various levels of cooling flavors in them, and rate how strong the flavor is. The e-liquids will not have nicotine in them. In total, the study will take participants 4.5 hours to complete.

You must be at least 18 years old and current e-cigarette user (using nicotine and flavoring).
