Abstract

Highlights: A total of 1.1% of Scottish adolescents were current e-cigarette users. Eleven percent have tried e-cigarettes before. Current e-cigarette users were more likely to be male and living rurally. They consume alcohol on a weekly basis, are current drug users and smoke tobacco. Similar profiles were observed among only e-cigarette users and dual users.
