Proximal Effects of a Just-in-Time Adaptive Intervention for Smoking Cessation With Wearable Sensors: Microrandomized Trial

Proximal Effects of a Just-in-Time Adaptive Intervention for Smoking Cessation With Wearable Sensors: Microrandomized Trial

Novel smoking cessation interventions are needed, and one approach is to target key precipitants of lapse and relapse that may ultimately lead to long-term abstinence. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) for smoking cessation address tobacco use by increasing awareness of the automatic nature of smoking and related behaviors (eg, reactivity to triggers for smoking) from a nonjudgmental stance [2-6].

Enhancing Text Message Support With Media Literacy and Financial Incentives for Vaping Cessation in Young Adults: Protocol for a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Enhancing Text Message Support With Media Literacy and Financial Incentives for Vaping Cessation in Young Adults: Protocol for a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Vaping cessation efforts among young adults often yield poor results, with many experiencing failed attempts [17,18]. Data indicate that 53.4% of current young e-cigarette users express an intention to quit, and 67.4% report attempts to do so [19], yet successful cessation rates remain low [20]. Despite a strong desire to quit, many struggle to stop vaping.

Google Trends Assessment of Keywords Related to Smoking and Smoking Cessation During the COVID-19 Pandemic in 4 European Countries: Retrospective Analysis

Google Trends Assessment of Keywords Related to Smoking and Smoking Cessation During the COVID-19 Pandemic in 4 European Countries: Retrospective Analysis

Still, no general conclusion can be drawn from the presented evidence regarding changes in consumption and cessation. Smoking cessation can be categorized into 2 groups. One is commercially available substitutes, such as nicotine patches and e-cigarettes. The latter are advertised as less harmful cessation aids. Despite that, the current evidence is ambiguous and their role during the COVID-19 pandemic is understudied [17]. In addition, expert guidance is available for smoking cessation.

Predicting Early Dropout in a Digital Tobacco Cessation Intervention: Replication and Extension Study

Predicting Early Dropout in a Digital Tobacco Cessation Intervention: Replication and Extension Study

This study aimed to conceptually replicate and extend Bricker et al [6] by applying the best-performing model from their analyses to a large, real-world dataset from a tobacco cessation intervention that includes both web and SMS text messaging components. While Bricker et al [6] conceived of the log-in measure as a single, unifying measure across digital platforms, it is exclusively web or app based and does not account for the multimodal nature of many tobacco cessation interventions.

Examining Quitting Experiences on Quit Vaping Subreddits From 2015 to 2021: Content Analysis

While nicotine vaping cessation shares many similarities with cigarette smoking cessation, it also differs in important ways, including variability of products, social acceptability, place-based restrictions of product use, and reasons for quitting [5,6].

Generation of Backward-Looking Complex Reflections for a Motivational Interviewing–Based Smoking Cessation Chatbot Using GPT-4: Algorithm Development and Validation

Generation of Backward-Looking Complex Reflections for a Motivational Interviewing–Based Smoking Cessation Chatbot Using GPT-4: Algorithm Development and Validation

For MI focusing on smoking cessation, several research teams have independently developed chatbots that have been tested and evaluated on experimental study participants. Our particular work has focused on an early step in smoking cessation, which is moving ambivalent smokers toward the decision to quit smoking. Almusharraf et al [14] designed an MI chatbot, which used predefined answers in a scripted conversation and measured its effectiveness on clients’ confidence to quit smoking with an 11-point scale.

Beta Test of a Christian Faith-Based Facebook Intervention for Smoking Cessation in Rural Communities (FaithCore): Development and Usability Study

Beta Test of a Christian Faith-Based Facebook Intervention for Smoking Cessation in Rural Communities (FaithCore): Development and Usability Study

People living in rural communities experience significant disparities related to tobacco use cessation treatments due to geographic and infrastructure difficulties [1,2]. Rural areas have a higher prevalence of tobacco cigarette smoking compared to urban areas. This trend is observed in both men (29% vs 19%) and women (25% vs 13%) living in rural areas [3].

Digital Smoking Cessation Intervention for Cancer Survivors: Analysis of Predictors and Moderators of Engagement and Outcome Alongside a Randomized Controlled Trial

In the past decade, digital interventions have commonly been used to target addictive behaviors, including smoking cessation (SC). Several systematic reviews have shown that these SC interventions can be effective, albeit with generally small effect sizes [1-4].
