Adapt2Quit - An Adaptive Motivational System for Socio-Economically Disadvantaged Smokers
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Tobacco Smoking
In brief
The goal of this research is to test the Adapt2Quit computer program that uses participant input (message rating on how much the text motivational message might influence one to quit smoking) to select and text motivational messages that are more likely to help a user stop smoking. This Adapt2Quit system will be compared with a quitline facilitation-only control (text messages will be sent to facilitate quitline use). The primary research hypothesis is that the Adapt2Quit recommender-selected messages will be more effective than a texting quitline facilitation-only control for smoking cessation among socioeconomically disadvantaged (SED) smokers.
