The purpose of the study was to examine trajectories in hookah use behaviors across young adulthood and socio-demographic correlates of the trajectories. Data were drawn from Project M-PACT for the years 2014-2019. Participants were 5,220 college students aged 18 to 25 years at baseline. Growth curve models with an accelerated design were fit to examine four hookah use trajectories across ages 18 to 30, adjusted for covariates. Prevalence of current hookah use decreased between 2014 and 2019, from 17% to 7% and the frequency of use decreased by almost one day a month. Trajectories of hookah use alone and concurrent with cigarettes or with e-cigarettes also decreased as students increased in age. Current hookah users were likely to be young, male, racial/ethnic minority, and attending a four-year college. Observed disparities among hookah users have implications, in particular regarding the role of social context, race, and ethnicity, in tailoring smoking interventions.

Introduction: This study examined trajectories of tobacco dependence (TD) in relationship to changes in tobacco product use, and explored the effects of product-specific adding, switching, or discontinued use on dependence over time.
Aims And Methods: Data were analyzed from the first three waves from the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study, a nationally representative, longitudinal study of adults and youth in the United States. Data included 9556 wave 1 (2013-2014) adult current established tobacco users aged 18 or older who completed all three interviews and had established use at ≥2 assessments.

Article Synopsis
- * Data was collected from 975 adolescents in the PATH study, showing that factors such as demographics, family background, and individual behaviors were linked to both initial tobacco use rates and changes over time.
- * The findings suggest that addressing both personal motivations and broader social factors (like household smoking rules and community isolation) could be key in reducing increasing tobacco use among adolescents.

Aims: To measure longitudinal trajectories of marijuana use in four tobacco/nicotine products (hand-rolled cigarettes/spliffs, cigars/blunts, hookah, and e-cigarettes) among young adult Texas college students from 2015 to 2019.
Design: This study used six consecutive waves of data from the marketing and promotions across colleges in Texas project (Project M-PACT), a longitudinal study of the tobacco behaviors of young adult college students. The first four waves were collected every 6 months (fall 2015-spring 2017), and the final two waves were conducted yearly (spring 2018 and 2019).
