Summary

This protocol describes a randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness of a smoking cessation program with two intervention methods. One method provides only CBT text messages (Group A), while the other combines CBT text with mindfulness audio (Group B). The study aims to compare the two approaches in reducing smoking frequency, managing cravings, and improving emotional regulation. This study investigates the effects of two different smoking cessation interventions: (1) CBT text-based program alone (Group A), and (2) CBT text combined with mindfulness audio (Group B). The primary outcomes include reductions in smoking frequency and cravings, as well as improvements in emotional regulation and quality of life.
