"In Control: A Home Video Freedom from Smoking Program" was sent to 101 participants. Of 53 completing self-treatment, 31 were verified as abstinent one month after completion. Of those completing treatment, 40 percent had not smoked three months prior to 12-month follow-up, and 30 percent had been abstinent during the past 11 months. (Author/BJV)
