Acceptance & Commitment Therapy for Smoking Cessation (Aka PATH Study - Partnering to Achieve Tobacco-free Health)
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Smoking Cessation. Completed, enrolled 450 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The overall aim of this 5-year project is to capitalize on the strong theoretical and promising empirical evidence for Acceptance \& Commitment Therapy (ACT) as an intervention for smoking cessation by comparing the effectiveness of ACT against standard cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) counseling when both are offered with nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) and delivered within a real world healthcare setting.
