符合条件的吸烟者(N = 6,451)访问美国癌症协会的互联网网站提供戒烟援助,知情同意,随机接受访问一个静态的互联网网站戒烟建议或五个互动网站之一提供的合作研究伙伴。通过电子邮件提示或电话在线调查进行了为期三个月的随访调查,以评估戒烟成功率; 54%的参与者提供了随访数据。结果显示,分配到互动或静态网站的参与者之间的戒烟率没有显着的整体差异。我们发现五个互动网站的利用率存在很大差异。当按照使用水平对研究中心进行分组时,在分配到使用率较高的研究中心的参与者中观察到的3个月戒烟率显著高于分配到使用率较低的研究中心的参与者(所有随机化参与者中12.2% vs. 10.2%,随访参与者中26.0% vs. 22.1%)。这些研究结果表明,互动的互联网网站产生高水平的利用率可以增加戒烟成功的吸烟者寻求帮助,通过互联网。
Eligible smokers ( N=6,451) visiting the American Cancer Society's Internet site offering cessation assistance were, with informed consent, randomized to receive access either to a static Internet site with quitting advice or to one of five interactive sites provided by cooperating research partners. Three-month follow-up surveys were conducted via online survey with E-mail prompts, or telephone calls, to assess quitting success; 54% of participants provided follow-up data. Results showed no significant overall difference in cessation rates among participants assigned to the interactive or static sites. We found large differences in the utilization of the five interactive sites. When sites were grouped by level of use, a significantly higher reported 3-month cessation rate was observed among participants assigned to the more highly utilized sites than among those assigned to the less utilized sites ( 12.2% vs. 10.2% of all randomized participants, 26.0% vs. 22.1% of followed participants). These findings show that interactive Internet sites yielding high levels of utilization can increase quitting success among smokers seeking assistance via the Internet.
