Comparing two approaches to remote biochemical verification of self-reported cessation in very low-income smokers
2021, Addictive Behaviors ReportsAssociation between generational status and smoking behaviors before and during pregnancy among Hispanic women
2020, Addictive BehaviorsCitation Excerpt :Therefore using self-reported measure in this study may underestimate true smoking prevalence among the study sample. However, the studies investigating the accuracy of self-reported smoking through biochemical validation have shown that self- reported smoking is accurate in most cases with only about 4–10% failures to confirm self-reported rates through biochemical analyses (Glasgow et al., 1993; Patrick et al., 1994). First generation Hispanic women in the NLSY79 had lower rates of smoking 12 months prior to pregnancy than third or higher generation Hispanic women and lower rate of smoking during pregnancy.
Lessons learned from unsuccessful use of personal carbon monoxide monitors to remotely assess abstinence in a pragmatic trial of a smartphone stop smoking app – A secondary analysis
2019, Addictive Behaviors ReportsCitation Excerpt :Remote assessment of self-reported abstinence in trials of digital cessation interventions using personal CO monitors is a promising and, in theory, more attractive and cheaper alternative to other available methods. However, in this study only a quarter of participants provided results of biochemical verification, much fewer than around 60–80% observed in other studies (e.g. (Glasgow et al., 1993), and unpublished data from (Brown et al., 2014)). These findings suggest that using CO monitors that connect to computers to remotely assess abstinence in a smartphone-based cessation trial was not feasible as per this study's protocol.
