“…These rates increased to 19.4% for NOT and 11.7% for BI at a 5.5-month follow-up assessment. At both points, the NOT program produced greater reductions in smoking than the BI, although the differences were not statistically significant 51 . Interestingly, it appeared that NOT was more effective for females (NOT: 29.6%; BI: 8.9%), than males (NOT: 14.4%; BI: 15.9%) 50 .…”

“…NOT also includes four booster sessions to prevent relapse 50 . Two studies of the NOT program published in 2001 indicated that NOT may be more effective than brief, standard care 50,51 . One of the studies 50 , examined 566 adolescents (81.3% Caucasian) and compared NOT to a 20-minute brief intervention (BI).…”

“…The second study 51 examined 346 adolescents (87.3% Caucasian); in this study, 17.3% of individuals in the NOT treatment and 11.3% of individuals receiving BI achieved cessation at a three-month follow-up. These rates increased to 19.4% for NOT and 11.7% for BI at a 5.5-month follow-up assessment.…”

“…Again, females (after three months, NOT: 12.2%; BI: 1.4%) appeared to benefit more than males (NOT: 4.3%; BI: 2.0%) from NOT 52 . The authors have proposed that BI may be more effective in males, resulting in BI confounding the comparison by failing to act as a true control 51 . Another potential explanation involves the single-gender treatment groups, which could benefit females more than males.…”

Unlike the vast literature on smoking cessation in adults, research in adolescents has gained significant attention only within the last decade. Even with this increase in focus, research into pharmacological aids for smoking cessation in adolescents (e.g., nicotine replacement therapy, bupropion) is a more recent phenomenon and has produced only modest results. While more extensive, much of the research on behaviorally-or psychosocially-based adolescent smoking cessation interventions has been limited by a lack of control for contact time, biochemical verification of self-reported abstinence, and/or a theoretical focus for the interventions. The MEDLINE, PubMed, PSYCInfo CINHAL and Cochrane Systematic Review databases were searched for articles relevant to adolescent smoking cessation treatment. After briefly examining the adolescent smoking cessation research prior to 2000, more recent developments in pharmacological aids and psychological treatment will be reviewed. Investigations have made progress in elucidating efficacious treatments for adolescent smokers, but much work remains to be done in both pharmacological and non-pharmacological areas of treatment. With the current state of the literature as a guide, future directions for research into smoking cessation for adolescents will be proposed.

“…The American Lung Association's (ALA) NOT program (Dino et al, 2001;Horn, Dino, Fernandes, & Kalsekar, 2004) embodies many of the characteristics of "better practices" for youth smoking cessation (McDonald, Colwell, Backinger, Husten, & Maule, 2003). The NOT program is based on cognitive behavioral principles of behavior change, emphasizes experiential learning through role playing and homework assignments, addresses risk factors relevant for youth who smoke, and fosters peer support among group members.…”

Web-based support as an adjunct to group-based smoking cessation for adolescents

Although group-based programs remain the most common treatment approach for adolescent smoking cessation, success rates for these programs have been relatively modest, and their reach may be limited. Web-based adjuncts may be one way to boost the efficacy and reach of group-based approaches. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of enhancing the American Lung Association's Not on Tobacco program (NOT) with a Web-based adjunct (NOT Plus). Twentynine high schools were randomly assigned to either the NOT program alone or to the NOT Plus condition, which included access to a specially designed Web site for teens, along with proactive phone calls from the group facilitator to the participant. Self-reported smoking behavior was obtained at end-of-program and at a 3-month follow-up. Using hierarchical linear modeling, accounting for the clustering of students in schools, and controlling for student gender, grade, race, and baseline smoking rate, there was a marginally significant (p = .06) condition effect at end-of-treatment and a significant effect at 3-month follow-up (p < .05) favoring the NOT Plus condition. Approximately 57% of adolescents reported visiting the Web site, and among the NOT Plus condition, use of the Web site was associated with cessation significantly at end-of-program (p < .05), but not at 3 months. Adolescents in urban schools were more likely to access the Web site than those in rural schools. Participants who visited the Web site rated it positively on several dimensions. Reasons for not using the Web site will be discussed, as well as its value as an adjunct.

Beyond quitting: Predictors of teen smoking cessation, reduction and acceleration following a school-based intervention

There remains a great need for effective, cost-efficient, and acceptable youth smoking cessation interventions. Unfortunately, only a few interventions have been demonstrated to increase quit rates among youth smokers, and little is known about how elements of cessation interventions and participants' psychosocial characteristics and smoking histories interact to influence program outcomes. Additionally, few studies have examined how these variables lead to complete smoking abstinence, reduction or acceleration over the course of a structured cessation intervention. Data for the present investigation were drawn from a sample of teen smokers (n = 5892) who voluntarily participated in either a controlled study or field study (i.e., no control group) of the American Lung Association's Not On Tobacco (N-O-T) program between 1998 and 2006 in five states. Results suggest that those who reduce smoking (but do not achieve full abstinence) are similar to those who quit on most measures except stage of change. Furthermore, it was found that those who increased smoking were heavier smokers at baseline, more addicted, were more likely to have parents, siblings, and significant others who smoked and reported less confidence in and less motivation for quitting than did those who quit or reduced smoking. Finally, a path model demonstrated how peers, siblings and romantic partners affected tobacco use and cessation outcomes differently for males and females. Implications for interventions are discussed.
