Project 2: Identifying Optimal Smoking Cessation Intervention Components

The goal of this research is to identify the best smoking cessation intervention components
to be combined into a state-on-the-art, comprehensive smoking cessation intervention. This
research examines the ability of different interventions, provided both prior to and after
the quit attempt, to maximize the ability to initially quit and then stay quit. The
investigators will be examining six different treatment interventions: pre-quit nicotine
patch, pre-quit nicotine gum, pre-quit counseling, post-quit in-person counseling, post-quit
phone counseling and duration of post-quit nicotine replacement therapy.
