Abstract Compares simulated demand for tobacco cigarettes, reactions to first-time use of nicotine-containing electronic cigarettes (NEC), and the impact of NEC availability on tobacco demand for New Zealand European and Māori/Pacific Island smokers, by asking individuals to estimate their daily cigarette consumption at a broader range of prices than could be assessed in the natural economy.

AbstractList Meta-analyses of these studies estimate that the average price elasticity of demand for cigarettes is around -0.4, which indicates that a 10% increase in the price of cigarettes would reduce consumption by 4% (Chaloupka & Warner, 2000; Chaloupka et al., 2012; Gallet & List, 2003; IARC Working Group, 2011). [...]regulation has been undertaken with caution in a number of jurisdictions. [...]participants were given the opportunity to sample an NEC. To generate prices comparable to those used for the FM CPT, prices for the latter were expressed relative to the current market price for cigs in Nov 2012 (NZ$0.70/cig) multiplied by the market price per package of 30 or 50g tobacco (NZ$30 and NZ$50 at the time) and rounded to whole dollar amounts. [...]minimum non-zero amount and maximum amount were NZ$2.00 and NZ$214.00 for 30g; NZ$4.00 and NZ$357.00 for 50g.
Can nicotine-containing electronic cigarettes (NECs) help to reducing smoking prevalence for Maori and Pacific Island persons in New Zealand? We compared simulated demand for tobacco cigarettes, reactions to first-time use of NECs, and the impact of NEC availability on tobacco demand for New Zealand European and Maori/Pacific Island smokers. New Zealand smokers (N=357; 30.1% Maori/Pacific ethnicity and 69.9% NZ European/ Other) completed questionnaires and of these 210 consented to attend a session in which they sampled an NEC and completed simulated demand tasks. Maori/Pacific smokers were significantly more price sensitive than NZ European/Other smokers. NECs were partially substitutable for tobacco cigarettes for both New Zealand European and Maori/Pacific smokers, but were rated as more satisfying by Maori/Pacific smokers. Tobacco excise tax increases may be beneficial for discouraging smoking, particularly for Maori/ Pacific male smokers, and the availability of NECs at a lower price than tobacco cigarettes may enhance the effects of price increases. NECs may be an attractive vehicle for nicotine replacement therapy and may reduce ethnic disparities in smoking prevalence in New Zealand. Keywords: simulated demand, electronic cigarettes, subjective effects, nicotine replacement therapy, ethnicity, Maori
