Interventions

A comprehensive 25-session intervention delivered by web, e-mail and SMS-text messages. Sessions are released one each day for 18 days, and then every second day for 14 days. Intervention content is tailored based on user input and individual usage pattern. The intervention is described in detail in Holter, Johansen \& Brendryen (2016). How a fully automated eHealth program simulates three therapeutic processes: A case study. Journal of Medical Internet Research 18 (6).

SMS & web-based lapse management systemStandard web-applicationWeb-based lapse management system

The lapse management system is based on a day-to-day logging of the target behavior (smoking). This logging goes on for four weeks after an initial quit attempt. The current version of the system logs by asking the participant about their smoking status every time they log on to "Endre" (the digital smoking cessation counsellor). Participants that report a lapse is routed to a fully automated counselling session delivered by web.
