='''Taxing Alternative Nicotine Products Reduces Smoking Cessation or Abstinence'''=
===2023: [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0167629622001345 Intended and unintended effects of e-cigarette taxes on youth tobacco use]===
*We find that ENDS taxes reduce youth ENDS consumption, with estimated ENDS tax elasticities of -0.06 to -0.21. However, we estimate sizable positive cigarette cross-tax effects, suggesting economic substitution between cigarettes and ENDS for youth. These substitution effects are particularly large for frequent cigarette smoking. We conclude that the unintended effects of ENDS taxation may considerably undercut or even outweigh any public health gains.
===2022: [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9796020/ Young adult responses to taxes on cigarettes and electronic nicotine delivery systems]===
*In the United States, higher ENDS tax rates are associated with decreased ENDS use but increased cigarette smoking among 18‐ to 25‐year‐olds, with associations reversed for cigarette taxes.
=== 2019 [https://www.nber.org/papers/w26126 The Effect of E-Cigarette Taxes on Pre-pregnancy and Prenatal Smoking] ===
*We show that e-cigarette taxes increase pre-pregnancy smoking, increase prenatal smoking, and lower smoking cessation during pregnancy. These findings imply that e-cigarettes and traditional cigarettes are substitutes among pregnant women.
