Smoking cessation quitlines
Quitlines providing telephone counseling for smoking cessation derive from behavioral research and theory, have been shown to be effective, and have been adopted and then institutionalized at both the state and national levels. Although psychologists have made seminal contributions to quitline development and evaluation, this accomplishment has gone largely unnoticed by the practice and research communities in clinical, counseling, and health psy…
Why Don’t We See More Translation of Health Promotion Research to Practice? Rethinking the Efficacy-to-Effectiveness Transition
The gap between research and practice is well documented. We address one of the underlying reasons for this gap: the assumption that effectiveness research naturally and logically follows from successful efficacy research. These 2 research traditions have evolved different methods and values; consequently, there are inherent differences between the characteristics of a successful efficacy intervention versus those of an effectiveness one. Moderat…
The Relationships Between Reading Processes and English Skills of Deaf College Students
This research project investigated the relationships between various working memory (WM) recoding processes and English language skills in a sample of 86 prelingually deaf college students from varied educational backgrounds. Part 1 reports the results of a short-term memory (STM) experiment and a Recoding Strategies questionnaire. The STM results suggested that, for most deaf students, neither the speech, sign, or visual codes are as efficient a…
Cost-Effectiveness of a Hospital-Based Smoking Cessation Intervention
OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of a smoking cessation and relapse-prevention program for hospitalized adult smokers from the perspective of an implementing hospital. It is an economic analysis of a two-group, controlled clinical trial in two acute care hospitals owned by a large group-model health maintenance organization. The intervention included a 20-minute bedside counseling session with an experienced health counselo…
Effectiveness of a consultation intervention to promote tobacco control policies in Northwest Indian tribes
A quasi‐experimental replication of an intervention for promoting tobacco control policies in Northwest Indian tribes is described and the process of intervention including issues of collaboration among research institutions and Indian organizations is discussed. The policy intervention was evaluated using a pretest‐posttest design wherein 20 tribes that had served as wait‐list controls now received the intervention. The intervention comprised a …
Tobacco Use Policies and Practices in Diverse Indian Settings
INTRODUCTION\nCigarette smoke is an equal opportunity killer. Although health data on American Indian populations are less comprehensive than desirable, it is clear that smoking-related diseases are a major cause of mortality. Because norms in the social environment are crucial in determining behaviors that lead to health or to illness, this paper reports data on policies that Indian agencies have implemented to regulate the personal use of tobac…
Quit and win
Objective -To summarise the overall Minnesota Heart Health Program (MHHP) experience with Quit and Win smoking cessation contests. Setting - Minnesota, USA. Interventions -The 12 contests reported here differed somewhat over time and communities, but key elements were present in nearly all. Smoking was validated prior to entry and quitting was validated among potential prize winners. A large grand prize such as a family vacation was typically off…
A Smoking-Cessation Intervention for Hospital Patients
Many patients attempt to stop smoking during hospitalization, but most relapse after discharge. This study developed and evaluated a brief smoking-cessation and relapse-prevention program for hospitalized smokers. All hospitalized smokers (n = 1,119) were identified by questionnaire at hospital admission and then received either usual care or usual care plus a hospital-based smoking-cessation intervention regardless of interest in stopping smokin…
Smokeless Tobacco Habits and Oral Mucosal Lesions in Dental Patients
As part of a smokeless tobacco (ST) intervention study, we collected data on tobacco use habits and oral health for 245 male ST users aged 15 to 77. The study sample was identified during routine dental office visits and represents a relatively diverse population of patients. Oral health data collection included grading the clinical appearance of oral mucosal lesions using Greer and Poulson's classification system, as well as identifying and reco…
Community Intervention Trial for Smoking Cessation (Commit)
Opportunities for participation in chronic disease prevention programs are discussed in the context of a description and analysis of the National Cancer Institute's Community Intervention Trial for Smoking Cessation (COMMIT). COMMIT involves 11 matched pairs of communities with random assignment to the intervention condition within each pair. The 4-year intervention is guided by a partly standardized protocol and embodies a number of community ps…
Parent-adolescent congruence for adolescent substance use
Debunking myths about self-quitting
This article examines data from 10 longterm prospective studies (N greater than 5,000) in relation to key issues about the self-quitting of smoking, especially those discussed by Schachter. When a single attempt to quit was evaluated, self-quitters' success rates were no better than those reported for formal treatment programs. Light smokers (20 or less cigarettes per day) were 2.2 times more likely to quit than heavy smokers. The cyclical nature…
Social support and smoking cessation and maintenance.
Examined the role of social support in smoking cessation and maintenance in 2 longitudinal, prospective studies with 64 Ss each (mean ages 38.4 yrs and 38.8 yrs). Three kinds of support factors were assessed: support from a partner directly related to quitting, perceptions of the availability of general (i.e., nonsmoking) support resources, and the presence of smokers in Ss' social networks. Ss were smokers in cessation programs. Corroborated smo…

Please Don't Talk to Anyone about This Experiment
Female Ss were deceived—a confederate tried to influence their opinions—debriefed, and then sworn to secrecy. They were then contacted, either immediately after the experiment or by telephone several days later, by a second confederate who attempted to elicit information about the experiment. Six of 36 female Ss in the immediate interview and 15 of 19 in the telephone interview disclosed “secret” information. The implications of the data for dece…

Emotional” Role-Playing and Changes in Smoking Attitudes and Behavior
The effectiveness of an “emotional” role-playing procedure for modifying smoking attitudes and behavior (Janis & Mann, 1965) was evaluated in three studies using 54 female smokers. Each experimental S role-played a patient who received information that she had lung cancer, would have to undergo an immediate operation, and would have to stop smoking; control Ss listened to a taped role-playing session. While experimental and control groups did not…

Further Normative and Correlational Data on the Internal-External (I-E) Control of Reinforcement Scale
Rotter's measure of Internal-External control (I-E) was administered to a large group of adult Ss in the course of a smoking control research program. The obtained scores were lower than reported norms for college students. While I-E was unrelated to years of education, there was a small ( r = −.14) but significant tendency for older Ss to be more internally oriented. Although I-E was not related to outcome of smoking treatment, relationships wit…
Smoking Attitudes and Intentions of College Students and Their Relation to Cognitive Dissonance
A questionnaire measuring smoking habits, attitudes toward the danger of smoking, and future intentions regarding smoking, was administered to 602 college students. as expected, smokers tended to minimize the danger of smoking and were more skeptical of the validity of the scientific evidence linking smoking and lung cancer than non-smokers. Smokers may be said to reduce dissonance by avowing an intention to quit smoking in the future and believi…

Failure to Verbally Condition Socially Desirable Speech
The effectiveness of verbal reinforcements in increasing the emission of more socially desirable self-descriptive statements was not demonstrated. Utilizing 42 psychiatric patients as Ss, an attractive young female E, and the reinforcer “hm-hm,” no significant differences were found on the dependent variable between those Ss receiving and those not receiving the reinforcement
