Quitting smoking cigarettes can be extremely difficult. Many people have made several quit attempts but have found themselves smoking again. Some research has found that couples-based interventions have been successful when it comes to quitting drinking alcohol. However, we haven’t seen the same success for couples who want to quit smoking. Therefore, our research will observe dual-smoking couples (i.e., couples in which both partners smoke cigarettes) in an attempt to better understand what goes on when either one or both partners try to quit smoking. This project is beginning enrollment in Summer 2025. Eligible participants can earn up to $99 by the studies completion.
