Smoking Cessation Behavioral Treatments

Behavioral interventions play an integral role in smoking cessation treatment, either in conjunction with medication or alone. They employ a variety of methods to assist smokers in quitting, ranging from self-help materials to individual cognitive-behavioral therapy.

These interventions teach individuals to recognize high-risk smoking situations, develop alternative coping strategies, manage stress, improve problemsolving skills, as well as increase social support. Research has also shown that the more therapy is tailored to a persons situation, the greater the chances are for success.

Traditionally, behavioral approaches were developed and delivered through formal settings, such as smoking-cessation clinics and community and public health settings. Over the past decade, however, researchers have been adapting these approaches for mail, telephone, and Internet formats, which can be more acceptable and accessible to smokers who are trying to quit.

In 2004, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) established a national toll-free number, 800QUITNOW (8007848669), to serve as a single access point for smokers seeking information and assistance in quitting. Callers to the number are routed to their states smoking cessation quitline or, in states that have not established quitlines, to one maintained by the National Cancer Institute. In addition, a new HHS Web site (www.smokefree.gov) offers online advice and downloadable information to make cessation easier.

Quitting smoking can be difficult. While people can be helped during the time an intervention is delivered, most intervention programs are short-term (13 months). Within 6 months, 7580 percent of people who try to quit smoking relapse. Research has now shown that extending treatment beyond the typical duration of a smoking cessation program can produce quit rates as high as 50 percent at 1 year.
