MULTIMEDIA SMOKING CESSATION INTERVENTION FOR WORKSITES

该项目将产生一个自动化的交互重复联系 工作场所使用的戒烟干预措施。干预措施 将利用工作站点设置提供多个联系人 只要员工感兴趣，就可以进行干预 在辞职方面。在项目的第一阶段，我们开发了一个成功的 使用互动视盘的原型干预。原型机是 旨在测试交互组件的可接受性和适用性 工作场所的多媒体戒烟干预。在第二阶段，我们 将为所有人完成现场干预材料的开发 员工。在第二阶段结束时，我们将完成所有研究， 设计、视频制作、编程、评估等任务 商业生产所必需的独立互动 多媒体售烟亭，配有完整的戒烟干预措施 在全国范围内的工作场所。 建议的商业应用： 这项研究将导致生产一种交互式视盘- 在工作场所使用的基于Kiosk的戒烟服务 干预。它将吸引那些希望降低 与吸烟相关的过度发病率和死亡率相关的成本。

This project will produce an automated interactive repeated-contact smoking cessation intervention for use in worksites. The intervention will take advantage of the worksite setting to offer a multi-contact intervention that is available to employees whenever they are interested in quitting. In Phase I of the project we developed a successful prototype intervention using interactive videodisc. The prototype was designed to test the acceptability and applicability of an interactive multimedia smoking cessation intervention in worksites. In Phase II we will complete the development of worksite intervention materials for all employees. At the end of Phase II we will have completed all research, design, video production, programming, evaluation, and other tasks necessary for commercial production of free-standing interactive multimedia kiosks with complete smoking cessation interventions for use in worksites nationwide. PROPOSED COMMERCIAL APPLICATION: This research will lead to the production of an interactive videodisc- based kiosk for use in worksites that delivers a smoking cessation intervention. It will be attractive to businesses that wish to lower the costs associated with excess morbidity and mortality related to smoking.
