“…Smoking cessation behavior change was classified into five stages, as described by Prochaska and DiClemente (): precontemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, and maintenance. The respondents were provided with an explanation of the characteristics of the five stages and asked one question: “At what stage of smoking cessation are you at now?” The construct validity (nomological validity) and test–retest reliability of this single‐item question have been reported as adequate in other studies (Aveyard, Lancashire, Almond, & Cheng, ; DiClemente et al , ) . The constructs of the five stages of behavior change were translated into Korean by Chang et al .…”

Aim: This study was conducted to compare conventional cigarette and dual smokers (users of both conventional and e-cigarettes) with respect to the stages of smoking cessation behavior change and psychosocial factors and coping strategies for smoking cessation among college students. Methods: Using convenience and snowball sampling methods, 300 college student smokers were recruited. The data were collected from July to December, 2016. The data included the general characteristics of the participants, information related to smoking and smoking cessation, the stages of smoking cessation behaviors, self-efficacy in, and barriers to, smoking cessation, and adoption of coping strategies for smoking cessation. Results: The prevalence of e-cigarette use in the cohort was 19.3%. Nicotine dependence in the dual smoker group was significantly higher than that in the conventional cigarette smoker group. No significant intergroup differences were observed for the stage of smoking cessation behavior and self-efficacy in, and perceived barriers to, smoking cessation. However, the dual smokers had a significantly higher prevalence of quit attempts and were more likely to adopt smoking cessation coping strategies. Conclusions: The findings indicated that the dual smokers had higher levels of nicotine dependence, but were more likely to attempt to quit smoking and adopt smoking cessation coping strategies. This implies that dual smokers might find it more difficult to quit smoking related to higher nicotine dependence, despite having a higher motivation for smoking cessation. These characteristics should be considered when developing smoking cessation strategies for e-cigarette smokers. In addition, different approaches to smoking cessation education should be used for e-cigarette and conventional cigarette smokers.

“…Likewise, such intervention strategies are continually assessed and generally require a therapeutic alliance be established (Polaschek & Ross, 2010). These studies also open opportunities to understand the efficacy of such treatments for populations such as adolescents (Aveyard, Lancashire, Almond, & Cheng, 2002), using and implementing good models in Brazil.…”

The Transtheoretical Model is an important theory in the study, evaluation, and intervention regarding motivation for changing behavior related to psychoactive substances, including individuals entangled in the justice system. The objective was to systematically review the literature addressing populations involved with the legal system and studies that are deeply related to the Transtheoretical Model. We have researched the following databases: Medline, SciELO, PePSIC and Web of Science, for papers published in the last 16 years. Seventeen papers were identified, indicating this is a field seldom studied, though the papers presented promising results. This practice is used worldwide as a re-socialization factor. Studies have emerged in Brazil addressing juvenile offenders, assessing motivation and motivational interventions. Further research is needed, while the legal system needs to invest more in treatment and subsequent motivation for treatment.

“…This measure assesses temporal readiness to quit within five stages: precontemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, and maintenance. This categorical measure has been reasonably employed with both adolescent and adult smokers (Aveyard, Lancashire, Almond, & Cheng, 2002; Carlson, Taenzer, Koopman, & Casebeer, 2003; Morera et al, 1998). Although this measure was included in the survey, it was not used for the present study.…”

Few studies have examined correlates related to the use of synthetic cannabinoids (e.g., Spice, K2) and Salvia divinorum. Two studies were conducted to investigate whether demographic, smoking-related, and substance-related variables were associated with the use of synthetic cannabinoids and Salvia. In Study 1, 185 participants (50% female; 83% Hispanic; Mage = 32 years; SD = 13.68) were recruited from a local health clinic and a university on the U.S./Mexico border for a smoking-cessation study targeting light and intermittent smokers. In Study 2, 675 participants (62.4% female; 89.1% Hispanic; Mage = 21.0, SD = 8.56) were recruited from a university on the U.S./Mexico border for an online study. In Study 1, 10% of the sample indicated they had ever used either synthetic cannabinoids or Salvia in their lifetime. Being male and dual/multiple use of tobacco products were significantly associated with having ever used synthetic cannabinoids or Salvia. In Study 2, 9%, 5%, and 3% of the sample indicated lifetime, past-year, and past 30-day use of synthetic cannabinoids, respectively. Five percent, 2%, and 1% of the sample indicated lifetime, past-year, and past 30-day use of Salvia, respectively. Logistic regression analyses revealed that past 30-day marijuana use and past 30-day ecstasy use were significantly associated with use of synthetic cannabinoids and Salvia in one's lifetime. These findings suggest that the assessment of synthetic marijuana and Salvia use is warranted in studies of other addictive behaviors, particularly among current marijuana and ecstasy users.
