尽管大学生吸烟率持续上升，但很少有针对大学生吸烟者独特动机和间歇性吸烟模式的干预措施。作者开发并评估了一个针对大学生的原型计划，该计划整合了网络和手机技术，以提供戒烟干预。为了指导用户创建和初始化通过手机短信提供的个性化戒烟计划，该计划使用了与计划网站一起提供的评估工具。从当地大学招募了46名经常吸烟的人，并提供了参与该计划的机会。在6周的随访中，43%的人至少有一次24小时的戒烟尝试，22%的人戒烟-基于7天的患病率标准。研究结果为使用无线短信向大学生提供潜在有效的戒烟行为干预提供了支持。
Although rates of smoking among college-aged students continue to rise, few interventions that focus on college smokers' unique motivations and episodic smoking patterns exist. The authors developed and evaluated a prototype program targeting college students that integrates Web and cell phone technologies to deliver a smoking-cessation intervention. To guide the user through the creation and initialization of an individualized quitting program delivered by means of cell phone text messaging, the program uses assessment tools delivered with the program Web site. Forty-six regular smokers were recruited from local colleges and provided access to the program. At 6-week follow-up, 43% had made at least one 24-hour attempt to quit, and 22% were quit-based on a 7-day prevalence criterion. The findings provide support for using wireless text messages to deliver potentially effective smoking-cessation behavioral interventions to college students.
