Summary

This study will compare the efficacy of an interactive, evidence-based smoking cessation website (WEB) alone and in conjunction with 1) a theory-driven, empirically-informed social network (SN) protocol designed to integrate participants into the online community, and 2) access to a 4-week supply of free NRT.

Conditions

  • Smoking Cessation

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

WEB

Usual services available through www.BecomeAnEX.org, a publicly available, evidence-based smoking cessation website.

BEHAVIORAL

Social Network

Proactive communications from established members of the community ("Integrators") designed to integrate study participants into the online social network on BecomeAnEX.org.

BEHAVIORAL

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT)

A free 4-week supply of nicotine replacement therapy (patch, gum, or lozenge), provided as an over-the-counter product, meaning that no additional support or guidance will be provided to parallel the experience subjects would have if they purchased NRT on their own.
