Based on self-reports of attempts to quit smoking for at least 24 hours at the 6- and 12-month surveys. The full sample (N=7,354) assumes that survey nonrespondents did not attempt to quit smoking over the relevant period. Respondents (N=5,619) refer to participants responding to either the 6- or 12-month survey.

Statistically different from Usual Care at the 5% level of significance.
