    Abstract

    The Tobacco Control Data Initiative (TCDI) is implemented by Development Gateway, an international non-profit, in partnership with the Research Unit on the Economics of Excisable Products (REEP), based at the University of Cape Town. The TCDI is funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Fundation. Its goal is to provide Sub-Saharan African governments with country-specific data for tobacco control policy design and implementation. The South African E-Cigarette Survey (SAES) was conducted in 2022 as a project of the TCDI. SAES 2022 was a telephone survey that collected data on the use by adults in urban South Africa of electronic nicotine and non-nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) and heated tobacco products (collectively defined as “e-cigarettes”), as well as traditional cigarettes. The aim was to estimate e-cigarette use prevalence and provide a demographic profile of e-cigarette users in South Africa, as well as to analyse the relationship between e-cigarette use and cigarette use in the country (particularly sequence of use for the two products).

    Questionnaires

    The survey instrument was a single CATI-based questionnaire, with different routing and modules depending on the type of respondent being interviewed:

    1. e-cigarette users who were routed to a long-form section of the questionnaire which collected demographic and usage data.
    2. users of traditional cigarettes, who were also routed to a long-form section of the questionnaire (up to a maximum of 700 respondents)
    3. users of traditional cigarettes were routed to a short-form version of the questionnaire (once the quota of 700 respondents was filled) to provide only demographic data
    4. non-smokers (users of neither e-cigarettes nor traditional cigarettes) who were also routed to a short-form questionnaire that collected only demographic data.

    The questionnaire was changed between the Pilot Survey and Survey Phase 1, and again between Phase 1 and Phase 2. The changes are documented in the South African E-Cigarette Survey 2022 User Manual.
