Self-Control and Adult Cigarette Smokers
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating self control practice - smoking related task and self control practice - non-smoking related task for Smoking. Completed, enrolled 75 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to learn more about self-control and adults who smoke cigarettes. It has been suggested that people can improve self-control by practicing tasks that require the use of self-control (such as delaying cigarettes or sitting up as straight as possible). The goal of this study is to learn about whether scores on self-control and other measures will change after one week of practicing self-control tasks at home. We believe that adults who smoke cigarettes will show better self-control after practicing tasks for a week.
