Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This randomized controlled trial evaluates an individual Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) program for smoking cessation among adults in primary health care settings. The study compares a group receiving face-to-face and telephone ACT sessions against a control group receiving only self-help materials, measuring outcomes such as abstinence rates and psychological flexibility. Results indicate no significant difference in 12-month quit rates between groups, though the intervention group showed greater improvements in readiness to quit and psychological flexibility.
