Smoking Cessation Intervention Development for Homeless Youth
Purpose
This trial develops a contextually tailored and optimized smoking cessation intervention and studies smoking motivations and motivations to quit smoking in homeless youth. Identifying motivations for smoking and motivations to quit smoking may help researchers build a program to help homeless young people quit smoking cigarettes if desired.

Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Establish a theoretical framework for cessation among homeless youth incorporating phase-specific capabilities and opportunities impacting motivation to engage in cessation. (Multiphase Optimization STrategy [MOST] Step 1) II. Guided by the theoretical framework for cessation among homeless youth, identify a set of cessation intervention components and assess their implementation feasibility. (MOST Step 2) OUTLINE: MOST STEP Ia: Participants attend a semi-structured interview over 60 minutes to help establish theoretical model of contextually tailored smoking cessation for homeless youth. MOST STEP Ib: Participants complete a survey to help establish theoretical model of contextually tailored smoking cessation for homeless youth. MOST STEP II (FOCUS GROUPS): Participants attend focus groups to help identify a set of cessation intervention components for homeless youth and determine component acceptability and feasibility. MOST STEP II (FEASIBILITY STUDY): Intervention components are identified and selected from Focus Groups. Participants take part in a study to assess these components for feasibility in implementing in coordination with homeless youth services, as well as determining main effect estimates for future studies.
