Brief Summary

The current study seeks to use a computer-based program to target parents of children who smoke. Parents will be randomly assigned to either receive personalized feedback about their smoking behaviors or not. One month after gathering their baseline information, all participants will be asked to complete follow-up questionnaires online assessing their smoking behaviors.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Stage of Change

  The Stages of Change Algorithm (SCA; DiClemente et al., 1991) will be used to categorize participants' individual stage of change in regards to smoking cessation. Participants will be asked, "Are you thinking of quitting smoking?" and then placed into one of the following stages: (1) Precontemplation, "No, I am not seriously considering quitting within the next 6 months"; (2) Contemplation, "Yes, I am seriously considering quitting within the next 6 months"; or (3) Preparation, "Yes, I am seriously planning to quit within the next 30 days."

  Baseline, 1- Mo Follow-up

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Readiness to Quit

  Baseline, 1-Mo Follow-up

• Personal Importance, Confidence, and Motivation to Stop Smoking

  Baseline; 1-Mo Follow-up

• Quit Behaviors

  Baseline; 1-Mo follow-up

Study Arms (2)

Personalized Feedback

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The interactive program will provide assessment and personalized feedback on the participants' level of nicotine dependence, daily cigarette consumption, money spent on cigarettes, behavioral consequences of smoking, individual medical consequences of smoking, and family members' medical consequences of secondhand smoke.

Behavioral: Personalized Feedback

Treatment as Usual

SHAM COMPARATOR

Practitioners are able to provide normal care with regard to smoking; participants will complete the Treatment Fidelity Questionnaire to assess whether any smoking cessation interventions occurred.

Behavioral: Treatment as Usual

Interventions
