Summary

Most treatment-seeking smokers will fail in their attempts to quit smoking in the early days and weeks of quitting. Poor sleep (e.g., short duration) is an overlooked, but important nicotine withdrawal symptom that can affect up to 80% of treatment seeking smokers and predicts relapse. Addressing sleep deficits could promote cessation, particularly in smokers who may be vulnerable to poor sleep in one or more sleep metrics even before quitting. This study will address this conceptual and empirical gap by conducting a 15-week proof-of-concept study to determine whether standard smoking cessation treatment can be optimized with a multi-metric sleep advancement counseling intervention.
