简要总结
A randomized control trial evaluating a novel smoking cessation intervention in individuals at a an inpatient clinic for clients with addiction and concurrent disorders. The intervention is based on cognitive bias modification, where participants are explicitly or implicitly trained to make avoidance movements by pushing a joystick in response to pictures of smoking, and as a result altering their cognitive biases towards smoking and tobacco dependence.
Hypothesis: Participation in the experimental (tobacco-avoidance) condition will induce reduction of smoking, assessed as lower levels of carbon monoxide measured at baseline and 12 week follow-up.

结局指标
主要结局
Carbon monoxide levels in breath
时间窗: baseline, 12 weeks
The breath carbon monoxide monitoring device will be used both before the intervention for a baseline measure and at the 12-week follow-up for comparison. These two measurements will be used to detect changes in smoking patterns that may have occurred during this interval. The method allows to objectify abstinence from smoking.
次要结局
- Fagerström test for Nicotine dependence (FTND)(Baseline)
