Can Smoking Cessation Improve Physiological Markers of Chronic Pain Risk in Native American Smokers?: A Pilot Feasibility Study

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿง  Behavioral & Psychological Program Sponsor: University of Oklahoma

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The goal of this pilot study is to assess whether 4-weeks of verified smoking abstinence following financial incentive treatment for smoking cessation improves physiological markers of chronic pain risk in adult Native American smokers. The main aims to answer are: 1. Determine study feasibility. 2. Obtain effect sizes for changes in pain amplification and pain inhibition in abstinent vs non-abstinent Native Americans. 3. Obtain effect sizes for variables in the conceptual model of the Native American smoking-pain relationship.
