Clinical Trial Summary

This study investigates the feasibility of a cognitive dissonance-based mobile app for smoking cessation (CDI). Cognitive dissonance refers to the conflict between beliefs and behaviors; interventions are designed to promote this conflict to motivate people to change their behavior. Recent research has demonstrated the efficacy and potential of using cognitive dissonance interventions for a wide range of health and behavioral problems including smoking cessation. This study will develop an initial version of the CDI mobile app and evaluate the app in an evaluation study with 60 adult smokers.


Clinical Trial Description

A group of 60 adult smokers will use and evaluate the initial version of the CoQuit app. All participants will be recruited through social media; they will be screened and consented online. After enrolling, participants will receive a link to the baseline survey which asks about past and current tobacco use, nicotine dependence, motivation to quit, cognitive dissonance and demographic information. All participants will then be assigned to an online support group of 5 or 6 people. The group will receive simultaneous invites to the app so they can move through the 25 day program together. The app contains short videos of a CoQuit facilitator who presents instructions for specific tasks, such as writing a brief letter to a friend or family member explaining the decision to stop smoking. Participants will make videos of themselves related to these activities and post the videos within the app where they can be viewed by other members of the group. All participants will complete a six weeks post baseline online assessment asking about past and current tobacco use, quit attempts, and thoughts about navigation, ease of program use, and possible improvements to the app. ;
