Smoking Cessation for Chinese Smokers
Associate Adjunct Professor
Dr. Tsoh is conducting several projects to improve smoking cessation among Chinese smokers:
1. Develop and test the efficacy of a family-assisted intervention, a self-help education intervention designed for the family or friends of smokers to be more effective in assisting their loved ones to quit smoking.
2. Examine the efficacy of a stage-based smoking reduction intervention for smoking reduction and smoking cessation in Chinese American smokers at various levels of readiness for quitting smoking.
3. A prospective randomized clinical trial with 12 months' follow up tests the efficacy of a culturally and linguistically tailored, nurse managed, smoking cessation and relapse prevention intervention among Chinese smokers.
