Summary

There is an important need for effective smoking cessation programs that both (a) promote the effective use of pharmacological aids, such as nicotine replacement products and bupropion, and (b) provide cognitive-behavioral support for stopping smoking.The Internet is an increasingly attractive intervention medium for delivering behavior change interventions, including smoking cessation.This study examined smoking cessation rates among adults participating in a randomized controlled trial of the Smokefree Partners: 21 Days to Freedom ™ program, a theoretically based, online smoking cessation program that included message tailoring and interactivity combined with the live personal support of a smoking cessation coach. Coaching support was provided almost entirely asynchronously via prescripted but individually tailored emails.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Smokefree Partners: 21 Days to Freedom

Treatment subjects, who chose a quit date, were given 21 sessions to be viewed one session (i..e, one day) at a time, and an in-person smoking cessation coach to support them through their quit process via tailored email or phone coaching messages. Treatment users were encouraged to use pharmacological aids in their quit attempt, but smoking cessation aids were not provided.

OTHER

Wait-List Control

Subjects randomized to the control condition were placed on a wait-list and given access to the smoking cessation program after 120 days and completion of the 120-day follow-up assessment.
