| Title: | A Controlled Trial of a Quit and Win Contest | | Author(s): | Ellen J. Hahn, Mary Kay Rayens, Todd A. Warnick, Costel Chirila, Robert T. Rasnake, Todd P. Paul, Dawn Christie | | Publication: | American Journal of Health Promotion, Nov/Dec 2005, V20, I2, 117 | | Keyword(s): | Prevention Research, Intervention Testing, Smoking Control, Incentives, Skill Building/Behavior Change | A volunteer sample of 494 Quit and Win Contest registrants (treatment group) and 512 randomly selected tobacco users not exposed to the contest (control group) participated in a community-wide smoking cessation contest. After adjusting for baseline differences in demographics, tobacco use, and stage of change, those in the treatment group had 2.6 times the odds of reporting quitting during the 1-year postintervention period and 5.3 times the odds of experiencing quitting confirmed by urine cotinine, relative to controls.
