“…Because there is now a reasonable degree of evidence indicating the important role of psychosocial stressors and negative affect in smoking vulnerability in AAW, tailored treatments targeting these determinants may be particularly effective in AAW smokers. AAW appear to have benefited from interventions that utilize social support and counseling models to address some distinct psychosocial issues associated with smoking (Ahmed, et al, 1994; Li, et al, 1984). Thus, tailored interventions designed to help AAW deal with stress and negative affect may be useful if methods to enhance social support and religious community involvement are emphasized (Ensminger, et al, 2009; Nollen, et al, 2005).…”

Tobacco smoking is a national public health problem that has been associated with numerous adverse health effects, including increased disease and cancer rates. Previous review articles on smoking in specific demographic populations have focused on smoking in women and on smoking in African Americans, but have not considered the dual roles of ethnicity and gender in smoking behavior. African American women (AAW) are an important subgroup to study because they are distinct from non-AAW and their male African American counterparts on biosychosocial factors that are relevant to smoking behavior. The purpose of the present review paper is to integrate and summarize the current literature on the epidemiology, determinants, and consequences of cigarette smoking among AAW, by contrasting them to relevant comparison groups (non-AAW and African American men). Evidence suggests that AAW are generally more likely to be light smokers and initiate smoking later. The prevalence rates of AAW smokers have decreased over the past 25 years, yet AAW are disproportionately affected by several smoking-related illnesses when compared to their ethnic and gender comparison groups. AAW smokers are distinct from relevant comparison groups in metabolic sensitivity to nicotine, aspects of smoking topography, and several psychosocial factors that influence smoking. Although a small literature on smoking in AAW is emerging, further empirical research of AAW smokers could inform the development of tailored interventions for AAW.

“…The combined method produced higher quit rates and lower relapse rates. 50,51 Similarly, parents who received counseling from their child's pediatrician along with written information and test results were more likely to smoke outside their homes than were parents who received counseling only. 52 One noteworthy approach to personalizing handouts is The Injury Prevention Program (TIPP) from the AAP.…”

Brief Approaches to Educating Patients and Parents in Primary Care

et al. 1998

ABSTRACT. Purpose. Pediatricians are encouraged by the American Academy of Pediatrics and Bright Futures guidelines to use well-child care as an opportunity to promote learning and development, encourage positive parenting practices, help children acquire behavioral self-control, and enhance the well-being of children and their families. Such counseling can consume considerable provider time. In an era of dwindling resources for health care, there is pressure to deliver services as efficiently and effectively as possible. Thus, the purpose of this article is to view methods for patient and parent education that are not only effective but also brief.Design. Review of 114 articles on issues relevant to patient education.Results and Conclusions. Parents appear to respond best to information that focuses on their specific area of concern. Media, such as advertising campaigns or office posters, can be helpful for broadening parents' range of interests. In response, verbal suggestions are effective for conveying brief, concrete information when parents are not stressed. Written information should be added for addressing more complex issues. Modeling and roleplaying appear especially useful when confronted with problematic parenting or child behavior. These approaches, if selected wisely and applied well, offer families needed assistance that has proven effectiveness in improving children's and families' health and well-being.

“…Several studies have established the effectiveness of smoking cessation interventions in primary health care services in general [8][9][10] and in public health clinics. [11][12][13][14][15][16] Current recommendations are that minimal smoking cessation interventions be incorporated in routine primary health care and that these interventions include, as a minimum, provider advice to quit smoking and written material or other help for quitting. [17][18][19] Most health professionals are aware and approve of these recommendations and report applying them to many of their patients.…”

Objectives. This study assessed the prevalence and effectiveness of smoking cessation interventions for women of childbearing age in public health clinics.Methods. Smokers in prenatal, family planning, and well-child services in 10 public health clinics (n = 1021) were interviewed 5 to 8 weeks after a medical visit to assess their exposure to smoking cessation interventions and smoking cessation outcomes.Results. Depending on clinic service and intervention component (poster, video segment, provider advice, booklet), 16% to 63% of women reported exposure to an intervention component during their visit. Women in prenatal services received more interventions and had better outcomes than those in the other services.Conclusions. Exposure to more interventions increased readiness and motivation to quit and the number of actions taken toward quitting. (Am J
