NCT01417975 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 43

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Female and male smokers will complete questionnaires and smoking behavior will be examined. After abstaining from smoking for approximately 18 hours, they will be randomized to a moderate intensity exercise groups or passive sitting group. Smoking satisfaction and smoking behavior will be assessed following treatment.

The hypotheses detailed below are specific to the randomization of participants into the following 2 groups:

1. Moderate exercise (Experimental condition; MEG)
2. Passive sitting (Attention control condition; PSG)

Hypothesis 1: A bout of moderate intensity exercise will be associated with decreased smoking satisfaction after a temporary period of abstinence compared to a control condition.

Hypothesis 2: Smoking topographic measures will mediate the relationship between a bout of moderate intensity exercise and smoking satisfaction.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Moderate Exercise Group

Participants will be required to walk briskly (equivalent to moderate intensity) on a treadmill for 10 minutes.
