“…Findings indicate that interventions designed to assist both smokers and psychiatric patients in quitting smoking prove to be effective across various countries. While some of these intervention programs used found positive effects on smoking cessation behavior (Amole, Heath, Joshua, & McLear, 2012;Brown et al, 2021;Hecht et al, 2019;Kahler et al, 2015;Kahler et al, 2018;Lee, 2017;Mak, Loke, & Leung, 2021; C. T. Okoli & Khara, 2014; C. T. Okoli et al, 2011;Rajalu et al, 2023), some reported no significant effect and a need to develop more intervention programs (Smits et al, 2019;Smits et al, 2021;Vidrine et al, 2016).…”

Smoking behavior presents a significant concern among individuals with psychiatric disorders, exhibiting prevalence rates surpassing those in the general population. This systematic review explores the effectiveness of interventions delivered by psychiatric nurses to help patients with psychiatric disorders quit smoking. A systematic search across reputable databases identified 18 relevant articles published within the last five years. These articles comprised nine randomized controlled trials, five experimental studies, one retrospective analysis, and one qualitative descriptive study. The interventions, conducted in various countries, encompassed cognitivebehavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, pharmacological treatments, and psychoeducation. Findings indicate that psychiatric nursing interventions can effectively assist patients in quitting smoking. A multidimensional approach addressing both behavioral and pharmacological components appears crucial for smoking cessation in this population. This review provides insights into the significance of psychiatric nurses in smoking cessation efforts, offering a roadmap for future research and interventions to improve mental health outcomes for individuals with psychiatric disorders.

“…Interventions like public disposal of cigarette packets and lighters can help remove cues to smoke. Interventions can also include personalized audio, video, or text messages that provide cues to maintain abstinence (Kahler et al 2018). Badges or coins that mark successful abstinence for a set period of time as employed by Alcohol Anonymous may also be used as cues to maintain abstinence.…”

Influence of Processes of Change on Stages of Change for Smoking Cessation

Tobacco smoking is the leading cause of death in the world, accounting for more than eight million casualties. To reduce the prevalence of smoking, government and nongovernment players use interventions to reduce smoking and/or incite smoking cessation. These interventions are based on behavior change models. Foremost among those models is the Transtheoretical Model of Behavior Change developed by Dr Prochaska. The transtheoretical model theorizes that smoking cessation is a stage-wise change. This change is enabled by a set of processes of change. The current study identifies the relationship between two basic constructs of the model: processes of change and stages of change. The study also identifies the relative importance of different processes of change in different stages of change. Data analysis from this study shows that different processes of change have a differing influence on various stages of change. Experiential processes have a significant influence on the precessation stages and lack significant influence on the postcessation stages. On the contrary, behavioral processes have a significant influence on the postcessation stages and lack significant influence on the precessation stages.

“…This additionally suggests that regularly engaging in activities that help maintain relatively high overall levels of positive affect during the initial weeks of a smoking cessation attempt may be beneficial. In line with this idea, prior research suggests that positive psychology-based interventions may be beneficial for both positive affect and smoking cessation (Kahler et al, 2015(Kahler et al, , 2018. Future research would benefit from examining whether just-in-time adaptive interventions designed to boost positive affect can lower the intensity of smoking urges and reduce the likelihood of smoking later in the day when individuals report lower positive affect than their usual in the morning.…”

Objective: Affective experiences are associated with smoking urges and behavior. Few studies have examined the temporal nature of these associations within a day, such as whether positive and negative affect in the morning are associated with smoking urges and behavior later in the day. Method: Participants (N = 63; M Age = 50 years, 48% female; 60% White) were randomized into one of three smoking cessation interventions and answered up to five daily ecological momentary assessments for 28 days during a quit attempt (M = 21.0 days, SD = 7.1). Before analysis, scores for morning positive and negative affect and later-day smoking urges and behavior were calculated. Results: On days when individuals' morning positive affect was higher than usual, later-day smoking urges tended to be lower than usual. In contrast, on days when individuals' morning negative affect was higher than usual, later-day smoking urges tended to be higher than usual, and smoking was more likely. Further, individuals who had higher characteristic morning positive affect tended to have less intense later-day smoking urges, whereas those who tended to have higher characteristic morning negative affect tended to have more intense later-day smoking urges. Conclusions: Morning positive and negative affect were associated with later-day smoking urges, and morning negative affect was related to later-day smoking behavior. Future research should examine whether interventions that boost positive affect on mornings when it is lower than usual and attenuate negative affect on mornings when it is higher than usual, may reduce the intensity of smoking urges and the likelihood of smoking later in the day. Public Health Significance StatementThis study indicates that individuals who experience higher than usual negative affect on a given morning may be at heightened risk for smoking urges and smoking behavior later in the day, whereas on mornings when individuals experience higher than usual positive affect, their risk for smoking urges later in the day may be reduced. These findings suggest that even if negative affect is heightened overall during a quit attempt, interventions might still support individuals in their smoking cessation goals by catching them on mornings when their negative affect is unusually high and providing just-in-time aid.
