Promising THemes LCC SCREENER



NOTE FOR INVESTIGATORS: The Promising Themes Study is designed to identify beliefs or belief categories (themes) that can be used to prevent initiation or progression to established use, or promote quitting, among youth and young adults in relation to four product types: little cigars and cigarillos, vapes, smokeless tobacco, and cigarettes. This work is based on similar studies conducted by Bob Hornik and colleagues. To conduct the data analyses needed to inform future campaigns, surveys must include individuals with a range of substance use behaviors, including 1) current users, 2) non-current users who are susceptible or open to future use, and 3) non-current users who are closed to future use. This screener reflects that need. This screener may be tailored to focus on one, or a subset, of the product types included here.



PROGRAMMER NOTE: FORCE RESPONSES TO ALL SCREENER QUESTIONS.



[SCNR_INTRO]

Welcome to the Unique Minds Survey!  

 

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is developing education programs that will improve the health of youth and young adults. 


To inform these education programs, the FDA is conducting a survey in partnership with RTI International, a non-profit research organization. 
 

  • You are being asked to answer a few questions to see if you are eligible for a study of approximately 1,700 youth and young adults in the United States.
     

  • You may only complete this questionnaire one time.
     

  • It will only take about 3 minutes to see if you are eligible.  
     

  • You may only take that survey one time and you will only receive one $5 electronic gift card if you complete it. If we find that you have completed the survey more than once, you may not receive a gift card. Once we complete this check, we will send you a $5 electronic gift card to the email address you provide. The gift card will be sent within 1-2 weeks.
     

  • Your answers to the questions will be kept private to the fullest extent allowable by law and your participation is voluntary. Please read our privacy policy before continuing.
