Description

Summary

Building on our successful pilot work to develop a Motivational Interviewing (MI)-capable chatbot and cessation coach, the investigators propose to address the problems of intrinsic motivation and social barriers to smoking cessation by evaluating a highly scalable and easily accessible digital-coaching intervention that 1) promotes readiness to change using a technology-assisted MI (TAMI) chatbot, 2) provides compelling and accessible multilingual education about smoking cessation tools, and 3) develops a tailored quit plan addressing social barriers to treatment initiation and sustainment.
