Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The recent Surgeon General's Report calls for effective and readily available treatment approaches to help adolescent smokers interested in quitting. Schools are an ideal venue for connecting adolescent smokers with smoking cessation assistance. This study will adapt the Craving to Quit (C2Q) smartphone app, which integrates mindfulness training into a smoking cessation program, for teen smokers (C2Q-Teen). We will test how well this novel app helps teens stop smoking compared to another teen smoking cessation app that does not include mindfulness training, and to written cessation information alone. If effective, the C2Q-Teen would be relatively easy to disseminate widely and have tremendous public health significance
