The text describes the SNAC study focusing on developing nicotine educational messages for specific populations. Participants were recruited through Prodege's panel and assigned to different study conditions. Study 1 involved exposure to various messages with different presentation styles. Study 2 compared brief nicotine messages with and without curiosity-eliciting components. Measures included assessing nicotine false beliefs and perceived message effectiveness. Analysis involved ANOVAs for Study 1 and planned comparisons for Study 2.
