In this Stage I Behavioral & Integrative Treatment Development (R34) project, we propose to
develop a theory-based smoking cessation intervention (called Persistence-targeted smoking
cessation; PTSC). PTSC includes 8 weekly individual counseling sessions and use of nicotine
lozenge for 12 weeks. We will test the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the
intervention (i.e., cigarettes per day and prolonged abstinence). We hope to develop a
feasible psychosocial treatment for use in a later randomized controlled trial.
