Biochemical validation of self-reported electronic nicotine delivery system and tobacco heaviness of use. Open
Research on tobacco use disorder relies on a combination of self-reported use (e.g., cigarettes per day) and biochemical validation to quantify heaviness of use. However, electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS) users may be unaware of h…
