Abstract

Supplemented aversive approaches with contingency management in 49 Ss with a mean baseline smoking rate of 25.8 cigarettes/day. Rapid smoking was no more effective than slow smoking. Significantly more contingency management Ss than follow-up or no-follow-up control Ss were abstinent both initially and at 2 mo, but at 6 mo, treatment effects were no longer evident.
