Examining moment to moment affective determinants of smoking rate following a quit attempt among homeless daily smokers.

CONCLUSIONS: Homeless smokers may be more likely to decrease their cigarette consumption during periods of greater PA throughout the post-quit week. Relationship between positive affect and reduction in CPD suggest focus on affective variables with homeless smokers may be an effective avenue for change in smoking behaviors, particularly in the days immediately following a quit attempt. Time effects should be further investigated to determine when these interventions might best be implemented.
