Computerized scheduled gradual reduction for smokeless tobacco cessation: development and preliminary evaluation of a self-help program.
The writers outline the development and feasibility testing of the LifeSign for Smokeless Tobacco (LS-ST), which entails a computerized scheduled gradual reduction program (CSGR) for smokeless tobacco cessation. The findings of their two studies offer support for the use of CSGR as an intervention...

The findings of their two studies offer support for the use of CSGR as an intervention for smokeless tobacco cessation and imply that the treatment model implemented by LS-ST may be effective. They argue that CSGR is an innovative approach to cessation that has not been used previously with smokeless tobacco. They contend that by combining the flexibility and power granted by a handheld computer (HHC) with the benefits of self-help, CSGR may have advantages over currently available programs for smokeless tobacco cessation. Furthermore, they argue that extending CSGR beyond smoking cessation holds promise for using HHCs to pace delivery of pharmacological interventions such as nicotine gum and nicotine inhalers. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
