Social and cognitive factors contributing to the intention to undergo a smoking cessation treatment

Article Abstract:

The study predicted that interest in the use of smoking cessation treatments (SCTs) is typical of 'dissonant smokers', that is the smokers who dearly want to quit but feel unable to do so. The results indicate that interest in the use of SCTs was positively influenced by being old, information seeking about smoking cessation in the past, nicotine dependency, having undergone a SCT in the past, experiencing social stimulation for abstinence, seeking many advantages and or many disadvantages with regards to abstinence, and having a positive attitude towards SCTs.
