Study Overview
Brief Summary
The goal of this project is to experimentally evaluate how expectations about reduced-nicotine cigarettes as well as actual nicotine content interact to determine behavioral and subjective response for these novel products.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Demand Intensity
Time Frame: Four times over approximately two weeks
Consumption of cigarettes at unconstrained price as measured by an incentivized demand task. Minimum value is 0, maximum value is not constrained. Higher scores indicate more cigarette consumption at unconstrained price (a worse outcome).
Demand Elasticity
Time Frame: Four times over approximately two weeks
Changes in cigarette consumption with changes in price as measured by an incentivized demand task. There is no minimum or maximum value. Higher scores indicate greater cigarette price sensitivity (a better outcome). Values are log-transformed. Data are presented for all subjects with non-zero data (zero data cannot be analyzed with a demand function so elasticity cannot be generated)
Secondary Outcomes
- Minnesota Nicotine Withdrawal Scale(Post-cigarette administration four times over approximately two weeks)
