简要总结
This research study will evaluate the preliminary efficacy of Pride Posts Plus, a social media-based smoking cessation treatment. A pilot randomized trial (N=120) will compare Pride Posts Plus, which includes a gamification element, to Pride Posts (without gamification) and to a usual care treatment. Participants will be adults who smoke, identify as sexual or gender minorities, and use Facebook. The primary outcome will be biochemically verified 7-day abstinence from smoking at 3 and 6 months. Secondary outcomes will be treatment engagement, a quit attempt (y/n), and thoughts about tobacco abstinence at 3 and 6 mos.
详细描述
Participants (N=136) will be randomized to one of three conditions: (1) Pride Posts, a Facebook-delivered smoking cessation intervention (including daily posts, and weekly live group sessions, tailored to sexual and gender minority (SGM) adults; (2) Pride Posts Plus, the Facebook-delivered smoking cessation intervention plus a gamification element, or (2) a usual care condition which includes referral to smokefree.gov, a federally-developed web-based intervention which includes similar digital treatment elements. All participants will have access to up to six months of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT).
Assessments will occur at baseline, 3, and 6 months follow-up. Assessments will include measures on smoking, thoughts about abstinence, and SGM identity experiences. All participants who report no past 7-day smoking will be asked to provide biochemical verification of smoking status using a portable carbon monoxide measurement tool. All intervention and assessment procedures will be conducted digitally.
