Smoking stage of change is associated with retention in a smoke-free residential drug treatment program for women

Article Abstract:

The relationship between smoking characteristics, smoking stage of change, length of stay (LOS) and discharge type is studied with respect to 75 perinatal substance abusers attending the smoke-free residential treatment program. Women with little interest in quitting smoking will have difficulty in sticking to the restriction during the treatment but women in action and maintenance will remain in treatment longer and complete their treatment.
