Summary

The current study tests a response inhibition retraining program, implemented on a mobile device, as a mechanism to increase relapse prevention during a smoking cessation attempt. Study participants (n = 150) are randomly assigned to a control, benign, or intervention condition. They complete 2 weeks of response inhibition retraining, and then engage in a cessation attempt. It is hypothesized that individuals who receive the intervention will have a decreased likelihood of relapse following the cessation attempt. In addition, it is hypothesized that this is due to decreases in implicit smoking motivation as a function of the response inhibition training.

Conditions

  • Smoking Cessation

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Response Inhibition Training

The primary purpose of this research is to examine the feasibility and efficacy of a smoking specific response inhibition training program in the context of a quit attempt. The task is based on a modified stop-signal task. The study utilizes a one-way nested design with three conditions.
