First seen Mar 09, 2026 · Last updated May 17, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study tests whether giving financial rewards through a mobile phone helps low-income adults quit smoking. 532 participants will use a carbon monoxide monitor connected to their phone to prove they haven't smoked, and some will receive money for each verified smoke-free day. The goal is to see if this approach works better than standard phone counseling and nicotine patches alone.
