Contingency Management for Smoking Abstinence With Adolescent Smokers

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Cigarette Smoking

In brief

The primary objective of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of this type of smoking cessation program by comparing a treatment group with a control group. A secondary objective of this research is to explore relations between impulsive behavior and smoking-cessation success among treatment-seeking teens participating in a quit-smoking program. Hypothesis 1. A greater proportion of the participants in the treatment condition will be verified as abstinent from smoking during the course of treatment than participants of the control condition. Hypothesis 2. It is hypothesized that teens who do not successfully stop smoking (or who drop out of the treatment program) will be more impulsive (from measures taken just prior to treatment) than those who do successfully stop or significantly reduce rate of smoking.
