This Project Grant award from the National Cancer Institute (CFDA 93.393 - Cancer Cause and Prevention Research) to Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey provides $371,822 to advance the science on the impact of cigar package quantity on cigar use behaviors. The project aims to 1) characterize changes in cigar pack size over time and assess its impact on sales, consumption, and patterns of use using secondary data sources, and 2) examine how pack size, price, and flavor affect product preferences among diverse populations via discrete choice experiments. This research will provide rigorous empirical data to enhance understanding of the associations between cigar pack size and use across geographic and sociodemographic groups. The project period runs from February 1, 2025 through January 31, 2030.
