Smart Phone Based Smoking Cessation
The Samsung Galaxy Light Smart phone uses the Android 4.2 operating system. The phone has a 4.0 inch (480x800-pixel resolution) touch screen display, a built in microphone, earphone jack, audio speaker, and a rechargeable battery with 12.5 hours of talk time. The phone has 4G and is Wi-Fi and GPS capable. Participants navigate through the EMA program and enter data simply by touching the screen, similar to a pen-and-paper questionnaire. Thus, computer/typing skills are not required. Participants have the ability to call and receive calls from research staff through the smart phone free of charge. All phones will be equipped with Global Positioning Systems (GPS) capability. The smart phones are also equipped with a Secure Digital card to store data as it is collected.
