The Effects of Traditional Cigarette and E-Cigarette Taxes on Adult Tobacco Product Use

Resource Notes:

From the Landing Page: “Using a differences-in-differences model, we find that higher traditional cigarette taxes reduce adult traditional cigarette use and increase adult e-cigarette use, suggesting that the products are economic substitutes. E-cigarette tax adoption reduces e-cigarette use, with some heterogeneity across groups, and dilutes the own-tax responsiveness of traditional cigarettes.”
