Add to ORKGUse of choice models is growing rapidly in tobacco research. These models are being used to answer key policy questions. However, certain aspects of smokers’ choice behaviour are not well understood. One such feature is addiction. Here, we address this issue by modelling data from a choice experiment on US smokers. We model addiction using a latent variable. We use this latent variable to understand the relationship between choices and addiction, giving attention to nicotine levels. We find that more addicted smokers have stronger preferences for cigarettes and are unwilling to switch to e-cigarettes. Further, addicted smokers value nicotine in tobacco products to a much greater extent than those that are less addicted. Lastly, we forecast ...
