TFN use was more common than tobacco use, while dual use was more prevalent among boys. Both TFN and tobacco use were associated with increased odds of anxiety or depression symptoms, with similar effect sizes across product types. However, association were partly gender-dependent. Among girls using nicotine, 80% reported anxiety symptoms, with higher frequency of use associated with greater risk. Among boys, nicotine use was associated with depressive symptoms, and dual product use was associated with an increased risk of psychological distress.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Nicotine use is associated with psychological distress regardless of product type. Girls may be particularly vulnerable to anxiety-related symptoms, while dual use appears especially risky among boys. These findings highlight the need for gender-sensitive prevention strategies targeting dual use and the progression to regular nicotine use.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1179173x261455075","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,22]],"date-time":"2026-05-22T13:34:21Z","timestamp":1779456861000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Gender-Specific Associations Between Tobacco and Tobacco-Free Nicotine Use and Symptoms of Anxiety and Depression in Swedish Adolescents"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-0235-9412","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Johanna","family":"Andersson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Gothenburg Institute of Neuroscience and Physiology"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Malin","family":"Hansson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Gothenburg Sahlgrenska Academy"},{"name":"Region V\u00e4stra G\u00f6taland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mia","family":"Ericson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Gothenburg Institute of Neuroscience and Physiology"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7165-9908","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Louise","family":"Adermark","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Gothenburg Institute of Neuroscience and Physiology"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_7_2_2","volume-title":"WHO report on the global tobacco epidemic, 2025: warning about the dangers of tobacco","author":"WHO","year":"2025","unstructured":"WHO.
