Trends in self-efficacy to quit and smoking urges among homeless smokers participating in a smoking cessation RCT.

CONCLUSIONS: White participants experienced less increase in self-efficacy to refrain from smoking and lower confidence to quit and therefore may be a good target for efforts to increase self-efficacy to quit as part of homeless-targeted smoking cessation interventions. Sustaining high confidence to quit and low smoking urges throughout treatment could be key to promoting higher cessation rates among the homeless. PMID: 29125976 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
