Smoking cessation message testing to inform app-based interventions – an online experiment
Overview
This study evaluates the acceptability of cognitive behavioral therapy distraction messages versus acceptance and commitment therapy acceptance messages for young adult smokers through an online experiment. Researchers analyzed ratings from 301 participants regarding message quality, design, and perceived support for coping with urges or quitting. The results indicate no significant difference in overall favorability between the two message types, though ratings varied based on participant demographics such as gender, sexual orientation, education level, and motivation to quit.
