This clinical trial uses behavioral intervention to assess if altered messaging has an impact on cigarette smoking consumption. Assessing behavioral outcomes may help medical professionals better communicate low nicotine cigarette standard to the public in a way that does not lead to misunderstanding of cigarette smoking related cancer.
