This study examined smoking cessation and cigarette reduction of indigent inner city pregnant women ( n = 193) who completed one of three interventions: a special videoprogram based on their perceptions of the effects of smoking during pregnancy, the American Lung Association's “Freedom From Smoking For You and Your Baby” program, or the usual physician's advice. Six percent of the women quit smoking, and 43% reduced the number of cigarettes they smoked. There were no significant differences among the three groups for either the number who quit smoking or who reduced the number of cigarettes smoked
