Predictors of Initial Smoking Cessation and Relapse through the First 2 Years of the Lung Health Study.

Nides, Mitchell; And Others

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v63 n1 p60-69 Feb 1995

Analyzed predictors of end-of-treatment (4 months) smoking cessation and subsequent relapse at 12 and 24 months among 3,923 participants enrolled in a 12-week cognitive-behavioral group smoking-cessation program. Men were more likely than women to quit smoking initially, but relapse rates were similar for both genders. Clinical implications are discussed. (RJM)
