1. My concerns about vaping would be concerns for my own health where second hand smoking is a thing, is it also prevalent with vapes and e-cigarettes. 2. It was likely changed to vape pens because the manufacturers wanted to move away from the name cigarette and move to a cleaner and more appreciable name. 3. I'm not entirely sure how people and young people especially get their vapes, it is likely from older connections they have like a friend that is able to buy it for them or an older sibling or relative to get it for them. The people that im most likely to trust when dealing with vapes would be health and medical officials or people who have been doing it for a long time. JH 1st Hour

1- I am concerned with the amount of chemicals and nicotine in them and how negatively they affect health.                    2- I think the name has changed because of the bad connotation cigarette has amongst people and I think people believe they aren't as harmful anymore.                                                                                                                                            3- I hear about these products mostly at school.

It probably changed to vape pens because it probably sounds cooler, but if you have seen one you can see that it kind of looks like a pen. Like I said people see as a cool thing or maybe they want to fit in, this could cause people to continue to vape or start to vape. 3. I live near a vape store, so I know where people around me could get their vapes.

1. My main concern would be how addictive can vapes become? Addiction can be very hard to overcome, and vapes can be counterproductive since they're considered a "safer" choice. 2. The change of terminology probably is a marketing strategy to make them look safer, "vape" sounds a lot more safer than "cigarette", which can lead to people feeling more confident in vapes. 3. I usually hear about vapes in social media ads or friends who vape, an I don't think any of them can be considered a reliable source. -EM 1st

The people that don't need it are hurting themselves for no direct reason.                          I think the companies stopped marketing themselves as e-Cigs and began calling themselves vape pens because there is a cloud of negativity over the word cigarettes. the term vape pens is a new word that doesnt have the negativity surrounding it.              I dont really see much info on vape pens except gas station signs saying they are on sale.

1). I don't think Vapes are very safe. They cause lung problems, and we don't know the long term effects of vapes like we do with Cigaretts. 2). I think the name changed from e-cigaretts to vape pens for the marketing and consumer product. Simply changing the name away from "E-cigarett" makes it much more appealing. 3). I see information about vape pens on advertisements showing the negative effects of vaping. I would trust information from doctors and scientists about vaping information.  LW4

1. My concern about E-cigs and vape pens is the concerning the vapor that is going into the lungs. The vapor is wet so it can lead to fluid building up in the lungs comparatively to smoke which is dry and doesn't potentially fill lungs with excess fluid. Another concern is the concentration of the nicotine because a lot of the time the nicotine in vapes is more concentrated in order to give the same Nicotine buzz with less hits. I just worry that it does more harm than good. 2. I think the term used to describe them is different because now they are shifting from a cigarette shape into more of a pen or a mod system. I think the perception has changed because it is seen less as a way to quit smoking and more of a simpler way of getting a nicotine buzz with more flavors and less smell. 3. A lot of the information that I get is from the ads on Snapchat about the risks but occasionally I read some articles about it. I trust the manufactures websites occasionally but mainly I look at like health websites. JB4

HB 4th- I think the bad thing about E-cigs/vapes is that they are marketed as if they are not as bad as regular smoking but they just as bad.

My personal concerns on e-cigarettes/vape pens is how much damage they are doing your body not just your lungs. My concern is that we think that it's only damaging are lungs but what about our blood or bones. What does the e-cigarette do to our bodies that we have yet to find. I think that it changed from "e-cigarettes"  to "vape pens" because of how much the vape and e-cigarettes have in common they are both technology based devices they also have some of the same health concerns. I think people changed it to "vape pens" because of the way they look and work.

EB 4th - I personally believe vaping is bad for you for many reasons. Nicotine is highly addictive, and can be dangerous for how the brain develops. Vaping cause health problems such as popcorn lungs or lung cancer. There are still a lot of long term factors that we still don't have a lot of research. There proven studies showing that nicotine can cause damage to the brain, and studies showing that vaping can cause serious lung problems

# data[].attributes.body
CS 3rd- My personal concern is how much it damages your lungs for every e-cigarette. I think they changed the name from "e-cigarettes to "vape pens" because cigarettes have tobacco inside of them while e-cig's usually have nicotine inside of them. I hear about vape pens everywhere, like online for example. I would trust information from scientists that have tested the affect of Nicotine on the lungs, heart, and brain.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe e-cigarettes/vape pens can be bad and can lead to bad consequences to your health especially for minors. The perception of these products has changed because of the newer terminology, throughout the years our technology has changed by replacing cigarettes to vape pens, and I believe the internet has caused that. The places I usually hear about cigarettes/vapes is school or the internet or Youtube ads. Usually accurate information about vapes is through online sources written by doctors. - CZ2

C.C 3rd- I think they are bad because your putting chemicals that are not natural in your body that your body is not used to, like putting steroids in your body, a testerone that your body does not know, they attract younger people with there flavors and have negative effects on you. I think they changed the name because it fits more with the description and to make them more appealing to young adults. Newer technology allows more flavors and more addictive substances. Mostly school i hear and see people talking or using vape pens. I don't really focus my energy on this stuff because it's a waste so i wouldn't know who to trust.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't really have any concerns with the safety of e-cigs. If people know how bad they are and still do it then it's ultimately their choice. I think people associate cigarettes as dangerous and something old people who hate their life smoke. Vape pens doesn't have the same stigma that cigarettes do. I hear my information from classmates but I would trust reliable website.  NB

What are your personal concerns regarding the safety of e-cigarettes/vape pens, if any?

How they can hurt the lungs with or without nicotine.
Why do you think the common term used to describe these products has changed from “e-cigarettes” to “vape pens?” How do you think the perception of these products has changed because of the newer terminology, if at all?

I think e-cigarettes places them in the same category as cigarettes which can be misleading because regular cigarettes are much different than electric cigarettes. E-cigarettes usually contain nicotine while cigarettes contain tobacco so changing the name can help differ them.
Where are the places that you hear information about e-cigarettes/vape pens?

Personal Concerns: Why do teenagers feel the need to vape? Aren't vapes for cigarette users who are trying to quit?

Why do you think the common term used to describe these products has changed from “e-cigarettes” to “vape pens?” How do you think the perception of these products has changed because of the newer terminology, if at all?
E-cigarettes were meant for people to quit cigarettes in general, but nowadays teens to adults now use this to vape. The perceptions has changed due to the fact that most people use this as a "toy", so they use it for fun.

Where are the places that you hear information about e-cigarettes/vape pens? What sources do you trust to give you accurate information about these products?

What are your personal concerns regarding the safety of e-cigarettes/vape pens, if any?
I believe that vaping can cause many health problems and that some people may judge you for doing them.

Why do you think the common term used to describe these products has changed from “e-cigarettes” to “vape pens?” How do you think the perception of these products has changed because of the newer terminology, if at all?
I think they changed the term in order to dissociate with cigs. Cigs are seen as more dangerous and risky while vape pens may seem to be a safer option. The perception of these products has changed to be seen as more accessible, enticing, and "safer" due to the technology improving and revolutionizing them.

Where are the places that you hear information about e-cigarettes/vape pens? What sources do you trust to give you accurate information about these products?
I hear them from my friends and my school. I trust experts and people who have used them and have stopped using them.  TT 1st hr
