Participants also completed demographic and tobacco use measures. Questionnaires were completed on the Prolific crowdsourcing platform. Participant data were grouped by sex (male vs. female) and age group (young adult (\u226429 years old) vs. older adult) and analyzed using factorial analysis of variance.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Younger adults endorsed higher social influence motives for use than did older adults, but older adult men also endorsed higher social influence motives than older adult women. Men were more likely than women, and older adults were more likely than young adults, to use e\u2010cigarettes for harm reduction. Younger adults endorsed lower smoking cessation motives, but younger women reported lower cessation motivations than younger men. Young adults endorse higher experiential and flavor motives, but lower dependence use motives. Women endorsed higher dependence motives for use than men.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion and
