High school students may be more likely to say no to vaping, if they know more about its effects

An Otago University study -- published in the latest New Zealand Medical Journal -- followed more than three hundred Christchurch students over six months.

Students provided with educational material about vaping were almost 10-percent more likely to want to quit.

Researcher Ben Wamamili says younger students -- in Year 9 and Year 10 -- were the most likely to change their minds.
