Abstract EN
The present investigation tested whether an enhanced smoking cessation program produced higher cessation rates for participants than for controls.
Participants in the enhanced intervention condition received in-person motivational counseling with health feedback, a tailored internet-based program, and nicotine patch.
Participants in the control group received a smoking cessation self-help manual and nicotine patch.
This randomized controlled trial was conducted at a 4-year university with a student body of 32,000.
Five hundred-nine students who smoked ≥1 cigarette daily were individually randomized into the enhanced intervention and control groups.
Over a 3-month period, participants in the enhanced intervention condition attended two personal sessions with smoking cessation counselors.
Participants in both conditions were reassessed for smoking status 12 months post-baseline.
Multivariate logistic regression techniques were used to analyze the data using the intent to treat approach.
Results indicated that the odds of smoking cessation were 2 times larger for the enhanced intervention group than controls (odds ratio = 2.3, 95%, confidence interval = 1.3, 3.9, P<.01).
This study begins to fill research gaps regarding college students and smoking cessation.
Suggestions for future advancements in smoking cessation interventions for college students are provided.
