Sampling method: NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE
Study population: The cohort will be divided into two groups according to their pulmonary status: subjects who are diagnosed with any pulmonary disease (pulmonary group) and those without any pulmonary disease (control group).

Brief summary: The purpose of the study is to explores various psycho-social, physiological, cognitive, behavioral, and environmental factors that may affect the association between pulmonary status and Susceptibility to Electronic Cigarette Use

Detailed description: In this study self-report questionnaires will be distributed and it should take between 20-25 minutes. Participants will be be asked questions related to smoking history, e-cigarette use, psychosocial factors, behavioral factors, environmental factors, and cognitive factors.

There is also an option of taking a web-based survey, Qualtrics® (Qualtrics, Provo, UT), if they do not have enough time to complete the surveys at this time. The online version of the questionnaires will be sent to the one week from now.

There is also a follow-up 5 minutes call with 6 months after today to follow-up with any change regarding to e-cigarette use.
