This study examines whether personality traits are associated with the onset of use of both conventional cigarettes and ATPs. Longitudinal data (baseline and 18-month follow-up) were used. The sample consisted of 1114 non-user adolescents (mean age = 13.36, SD = 0.93, 56% female) at baseline. To measure personality traits, the Substance Use Risk Profile Scale was used with four subscales: anxiety sensitivity, hopelessness, sensation seeking, and impulsivity. Structural equation models were conducted using Mplus 7.3. Results showed that both hopelessness and sensation seeking were associated with the onset of use of e-cigarettes and conventional cigarettes. Further, sensation seeking and impulsivity were associated with the onset of use of shisha-pens and water pipes. In conclusion, to prevent adolescents from using ATPs and\/or conventional cigarettes, it is important to take their personality traits into account. More research on other (shared) risk factors and on more advanced stages of ATP use is needed before effective prevention strategies can be developed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph182413248","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,16]],"date-time":"2021-12-16T11:27:36Z","timestamp":1639654056000},"page":"13248","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Longitudinal Associations of Substance Use Risk Profiles with the Use of Alternative Tobacco Products and Conventional Smoking among Adolescents"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Marieke","family":"Hiemstra","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Academic Collaborative Centre for Public Health Brabant, Department Tranzo, Tilburg University, 5000 LE Tilburg, The Netherlands"},{"name":"National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM), 3720 BA Bilthoven, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7556-2409","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andrea","family":"Rozema","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Academic Collaborative Centre for Public Health Brabant, Department Tranzo, Tilburg University, 5000 LE Tilburg, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maria","family":"Jansen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Academic Collaborative Centre for Public Health Limburg, Public Health Service South Limburg (GGD ZL), 6400 AA Geleen, The Netherlands"},{"name":"Department of Health Services Research, Care and Public Health Research Institute (CAPHRI), Maastricht University, 6211 LK Maastricht, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hans","family":"van Oers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Academic Collaborative Centre for Public Health Brabant, Department Tranzo, Tilburg University, 5000 LE Tilburg, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2425-4510","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jolanda","family":"Mathijssen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Academic Collaborative Centre for Public Health Brabant, Department Tranzo, Tilburg University, 5000 LE Tilburg, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1276","DOI":"10.15585\/mmwr.mm6745a5","article-title":"Notes from the Field: Use of Electronic Cigarettes and Any Tobacco Product Among Middle and High School Students\u2014United States, 2011\u20132018","volume":"67","author":"Cullen","year":"2018","journal-title":"MMWR.
