Abstract

In recent years, the United States observed a significant uptake in concurrent use of multiple tobacco products and alternative nicotine delivery devices among youth-a phenomenon identified as polytobacco use-making tobacco control efforts more complex for clinicians, policy makers, and scientists, alike.The present commentary stimulates new perspectives on tobacco control in the context of polytobacco use and a youth culture of customization. This culture-based value of today's youth may inform current patterns of tobacco use. More specifically, the authors hypothesize a concept of tobacco customization-the concurrent use of multiple tobacco products to create personalized tobacco experience matching lifestyle, culture, values, and addiction levels. With a range of experiences made possible through an ever-increasing menu of tobacco products, flavors, and novel devices, the current youth culture of customization may also translate to tobacco customization. Given the predominance of polytobacco use in youth-tobacco users, tobacco control initiatives must be challenged to new perspectives. Should we discover the viability of tobacco customization, tobacco use strategies that target cultural values, harness popular trends, and culture and provide customizable experiences may have a notable impact on tobacco use in this population.

多种烟草使用和“定制一代”——烟草控制的新视角。

近年来，美国观察到年轻人同时使用多种烟草产品和替代尼古丁输送装置的现象显著增加，这一现象被称为多重烟草使用，这使得临床医生、政策制定者和科学家的控烟工作更加复杂。本评论激发了在多种烟草使用和青年定制文化背景下烟草控制的新观点。当今青年的这种基于文化的价值观可能会影响当前的烟草使用模式。更具体地说，作者假设了一个烟草定制的概念——同时使用多种烟草产品来创造个性化的烟草体验，与生活方式、文化、价值观和成瘾程度相匹配。随着不断增加的烟草产品、口味和新设备的菜单使一系列体验成为可能，目前年轻人的定制文化也可能转化为烟草定制。鉴于青少年烟草使用者中多种烟草的使用占主导地位，必须对烟草控制行动提出新的挑战。如果我们发现烟草定制的可行性，针对文化价值观、利用流行趋势和文化并提供可定制体验的烟草使用策略可能会对这一人群的烟草使用产生显著影响。
