Commentary
In 2017, 9.6% of ACT secondary students surveyed reported that they had ever used e-cigarettes. This was similar to the national figure (14.0%). Males (11.5%) were no more likely than females (7.7%) to report ever using e-cigarettes.
Please note that this indicator was updated in 2022 and replaces all previous versions.
For the purpose of reporting the Australian Secondary Students' Alcohol and Drug survey data on HealthStats, if the 95% confidence intervals of the estimates do not overlap, they are considered to be significantly different.
