[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS oQsc8R0x. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Tobacco use rates are high among college students, and while many of them try to quit every year, only a small percentage are successful at maintaining abstinence. Most colleges have campus health centers that offer treatment for tobacco cessation, but few students access these resources. Little is known about how to motivate young adult college students to seek treatment or assist them in their attempts to quit smoking. In the context of a comprehensive, group-randomized intervention study to decrease smoking among college students, a case-based tobacco cessation training program for campus health center providers and staff was developed and conducted at 14 intervention colleges during the 2003-2004 academic year. Six case studies were created for this training, using responses from 39 student elicitation interviews conducted at 12 colleges in Spring 2002. Common themes relating to smoking, quitting, and relapse experiences reported by students in the elicitation interviews were woven into the cases and integrated into the training program.
