“…A study by Amodei and Lamb18 examined demographic characteristics related to success in a CM program based on whether participants indicated that they used NRT to aid in quitting. These researchers found use of NRT on the first day of the study was the most reliable predictor of initial abstinence (ie, first 10 days of cessation attempt).…”

Clinical management of smoking cessation: patient factors affecting a reward-based approach

Although the majority of current smokers indicate they would like to quit, only about half of smokers make a quit attempt each year. Of those who attempt to quit, only about 5% are successful. Many effective products and programs are available to assist in smoking cessation; however those interested in quitting often do not make use of these resources. To increase use of cessation products in order to improve successful cessation rates, the Consumer Demand Roundtable has argued that smokers need to be viewed as consumers of cessation products rather than as patients needing treatment. With this consumer-based approach in mind, the current review examines how participant characteristics, perceptions, and behavior influence, and are influenced by, contingency management (CM) paradigms in various settings. Findings suggest that participant factors associated with success in these programs include demographic characteristics (eg, gender, marital status), self-efficacy, motivation to quit, and impulsivity. Overall, participants perceive incentives for successful cessation as motivating. However, such programs may involve greater withdrawal symptoms (eg, craving for cigarettes) initially, but these symptoms tend to decrease at a greater rate over time compared with nonincentive group participants. CM programs have also been shown to be successful across a number of settings (eg, communities, schools), including settings in which smokers are often considered difficult to treat (eg, substance abuse treatment centers). Overall, CM programs are perceived positively by participants and can increase rates of successful cessation. Furthermore, CM interventions have the flexibility to adapt to individual preferences and needs, leading to greater participation and likelihood of successful cessation. Thus, CM provides an important framework for addressing the need for consumer-focused smoking cessation interventions.

“…Abstinence selfefficacy mediates the relation between smoking treatment and increased abstinence (Hendricks, Delucchi, & Hall, 2010;McCarthy et al, 2010;Stanton, Lloyd-Richardson, Papandonatos, de Dios, & Niaura, 2009), and abstinence increases self-efficacy (Perkins, Parzynski, Mercincavage, Conklin, & Fonte, 2012). In three studies with all participants receiving CM, smoking abstinence and self-efficacy were positively related (Amodei & Lamb, 2010;Lamb, Morral, Galbicka, Kirby, & Iguchi, 2005;Romanowich, Mintz, & Lamb, 2009), but whether CM differentially impacts self-efficacy to affect abstinence could not be evaluated without a non-CM condition.…”

introduction: Individuals with substance use disorders (SUDs) experience increased smoking-related morbidity and mortality but severely compromised smoking treatment benefits. Residential SUD treatment settings may be particularly positioned to target smoking, with ever-increasing smoking bans and culture shifts, but most smokers continue smoking. This study examined the effects of contingency management (CM) for increasing smoking abstinence in residential patients.

“…The possibility of provision of nicotine chewing gums at these centers, to the staff which may bring a reduction in TC may be explored and studied. [ 23 24 ] The authors do feel that tobacco cessation activities targeted at this high risk occupational group of bus drivers and conductors pose a unique challenge even for the workplace cessation efforts. Further studies may be carried out to understand the psychology of tobacco behavior specific to this occupation and other workplaces to think of solutions.…”

Is occupation the “driving force” for tobacco consumption? A cross-sectional study to assess prevalence, patterns, and attitude towards tobacco use among long-distance bus drivers and conductors in Western Maharashtra

et al. 2019

Background: Tobacco use remains a major cause of preventable deaths worldwide. The recent Global Adult Tobacco Survey 2016–2017 has shown the prevalence of tobacco use among Indian population to be 28.6%. In Maharashtra, 35.5% of all adult males either smoke tobacco or use some form of smokeless tobacco. Not much data are available on tobacco use with respect to different occupations in India, though risk of tobacco use is known to be higher among individuals in certain occupations. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among 190 long-distance bus drivers and conductors of long route buses departing from one of the main bus stations of the State Transport Corporation in Pune city. Data were collected using a pretested, structured questionnaire by interview method. Results: Prevalence of tobacco consumption (TC) among the respondents was 55.8% (95% confidence interval; 48.4–63). Among the tobacco users, 54% reported initiation at age <18 years “peer pressure” and “curiosity” were the main reasons for initiation while “feeling alert” and “feeling mature” were reasons for continued use. A large proportion (74.5%) of the respondents expressed their intention to quit tobacco in the near future. Conclusion: Long-distance bus drivers and conductors showed a high prevalence of TC which may be linked to certain occupation-related factors. Targeted tobacco cessation activities at workplaces may be considered as a strategy for better impact of tobacco control activities in India.
