What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Breakpoint of Drug Purchase Tasks (DPT)
Time Frame: Up to 180 minutes
|
The DPTs will yield measures of willingness to pay and measures of price sensitivity for session-specific tobacco products.
Choices made during this task are not reinforced during the session.
Each DPT will be completed once per study session (either 90 minutes or approximately 180 minutes into the session, timing varies based on task order presentation and potentially choices made in tasks presented prior to this task).
|
Up to 180 minutes
|
Breakpoint of Multiple Choice Procedure (MCP)
Time Frame: Up to 180 minutes.
|
The MCP will yield of measure of willingness to pay for session-specific tobacco products.
One choice made during this task is reinforced (i.e., money or tobacco product is distributed).
Completed once per study session (either 90 minutes or approximately 180 minutes into the session, timing varies based on task order presentation and potentially choices made in tasks presented prior to this task).
|
Up to 180 minutes.
|
Effort for Product Puffs With the Progressive Ratio Task (PRT)
Time Frame: Up to 180 minutes.
|
The PRT will yield a measure of willingness to work for session-specific tobacco products (via number of times a space bar is pressed to earn puffs) by measuring the number of puffs self-administrated.
Completed once per study session (either 90 minutes or approximately 180 minutes into the session, timing varies based on task order presentation and potentially choices made in tasks presented prior to this task).
|
Up to 180 minutes.
