Uitkomstmaten
Primaire uitkomstmaten
The proportion of abstinent participants 12 months after the initial quit date (t1 – t4). This refers to prolonged abstinence between quit day (t1) and the 52-week follow-up (t4).
Abstinence will be evaluated by self-reported smoking (via email/sms), which is validated by CO measurements.
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
The aim of the project is to evaluate whether a lottery at the workplace will increase the effectiveness of evidence-based tobacco-cessation training by increasing the number of successfully quitted smokers after 12 months. A cluster randomized controlled trial will be conducted on smoking employees and short and long-term assessments on abstinence of smoking will be conducted.
Doel van het onderzoek
It is hypothesized that the lotteries will increase abstinence smoking rates over and above an effective smoking-cessation training program.

Baseline, 13 weeks, 26 weeks, 52 weeks
Onderzoeksproduct en/of interventie
Both the intervention and the control condition will receive an effective smoking-cessation training program. The training sessions will be given by professional coaches from the Dutch company SineFuma. The program consists of seven weekly group counseling sessions of 90-minutes session per week in the workplace setting. A standard part of the weekly sessions is the Carbon Monoxide (CO) measurement.
Participants in the intervention condition will follow the smoking cessation training in combination with lotteries. Lottery participants can win €50 every week for 3 months. The winning ticket is drawn out of all lottery participants within each company and is announced to all, but the winners are only eligible for their prize if they did not smoke that week, as confirmed by a noninvasive breath- test (CO measurement). After 6 months, participants can win a family vacation (worth €400). The winners are informed about their prize, but can only claim the prize if they remained abstinent for 6 months.
