The authors launched a…

For-profits reported significantly fewer tobacco treatment resources than nonprofits. The Affordable Care and Mental Health P…

Change in self-efficacy, autonomous and controlled motivation predicting smoking
Although motivational interviewing (MI) has been shown to be effective in changing health behaviors, its effects on smoking cessation have been mixed. The purpose of the present study is to assess factors of motivation and self-efficacy as they mediate the relationship between MI and smoking cessation. This is a secondary analysis of an MI based smoking cessation randomized trial. MI counseling was associated with change in smoking behaviors duri…
Good and Bad Times for Treating Cigarette Smoking in Drug Treatment

Such frameworks can help improve collaborative partnerships for community health and development. First, we outline an interactive model of community empowerment that describes reciprocal influences between personal or group factors and environmental factors in an …
