Decidetexto: Mobile Cessation Support for Latino Smokers
Research Question:
What is the impact of Decídetexto, a culturally appropriate mobile smoking cessation
intervention, versus standard care on smoking abstinence after 6 months among Latino
smokers?
Basic Study Information
Purpose:
Latino smokers (N = 618) will be randomized to one of two conditions: 1) Decídetexto
or 2) standard of care. Decídetexto is a mobile smoking cessation intervention (available
in English and Spanish) that incorporates three integrated components: 1) a tablet-based
software that collects smoking-related information to develop an individualized quit
plan, 2) a 24-week text messaging counseling program with interactive capabilities,
and 3) pharmacotherapy support. Decídetexto follows the Social Cognitive Theory as
theoretical framework. Standard of care consists of printed smoking cessation materials
along with referral to telephone quitline. Participants in both groups are given access
to free pharmacotherapy (nicotine patches or gum) by calling study phone number. All
participants will complete follow-up assessments at Week 12 and Month 6.
