25 Participants

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 month follow-up

Population: Only those who indicated they had not used tobacco in any form (traditional cigarettes or electronic cigarettes) and had not taken nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) in the past 30 days were given the option to complete the biochemical verification.

For participants who self-reported past 30 day cessation, an option was provided to biochemically verify cessation with a mailed saliva sample.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Study completion (approximately 12 weeks)

Population: Recordings of intervention sessions were randomly selected at set intervals during the enrollment period and scored.

Extent of fidelity achieved in intervention delivery by a health educator. The mean score was calculated from 0 (never/very poor) to 5 (always/very good) for each of the 10 fidelity rating questions, which were summed, with a maximum possible score of 50. The scale utilized was an adapted version of the Motivational Interviewing Treatment Integrity tool (MITI).
