Completed Projects

Tailored Interventions for Smoking
Cessation (TISC)
Specific Aims/Objectives:
To establish a reliable means of identifying
and quantifying the diverse impediments to smoking cessation
in an individual subject.
To demonstrate that smoking cessation interventions
tailored to individual subjects’ impediment profiles
increase one-year quit rates (40% projected) compared
to the best historical results (approximately 25%).
Current Status:
This study has been approved by the Human
Investigation Committee at Yale University and by the
Institutional Review Board at Griffin Hospital. We are
currently recruiting participants, and plan to begin
the study in August, 2000.
