The purpose of this research study is to find out more about smokers in recovery from
addiction to alcohol/other drugs, and to evaluate a brief computerized smoking behavior
feedback session. The hypothesis is that a brief computerized smoking behavior feedback
session will motivate more smokers to quit smoking than a control condition.
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Be 18 years of age or older
2. Be in recovery from addiction to alcohol and/or drugs (self-defined)
3. Have smoked at least one cigarette per day for the past seven days or at least 10
cigarettes total during the past week
4. Have smoked at least 100 cigarettes (lifetime)
5. Have an expired air carbon monoxide (CO) level of > 6 ppm (verifies current smoking)
6. Be cognitively able to understand the proposed research design (screening followed by
random assignment to one of the two conditions, if appropriate)
To be eligible to receive NRT (if chosen by the participant), participants must:
1. Not be pregnant, breastfeeding, or plan to become pregnant in the next year
2. Not have experienced a myocardial infarction (heart attack) or have been hospitalized
for a heart-related problem in the last 2 weeks
