Smoking control program
helps people kick the habit
By Lori Stephens
Of The Emerald
For people who have tried un
successfully to quit smoking,
the University Smoking Control
Program offers an effective,
behavior-oriented method for
kicking the habit.
Researchers in the program
have been doing clinical studies
on smoking-control methods for
15 years under the direction of
Psychology Prof. Edward
Lichtenstein, and counselors
have been working directly
with smokers for almost six
years.
“We try to deal with both the
physical and the psychological
aspects of smoking,’’ says Tom
Kamarck, one of the counselors
at the clinic. “We think of
smoking in part as something
people have learned, and we
help them to develop skills it
may take to unlearn it.”
The six-week program is of
fered once each term. For the
first three weeks, clients reduce
their daily nicotine intake by
switching cigarette brands.
They also record their smoking
habits and learn “ways to alter
their environment while they’re
practicing quitting,” Kamarck
says.
“We encourge them to think
of a lot of different strategies,’’
Kamarck says. One strategy
would be to use substitutes in
place of smoking, such as chew
ing gum or carrot sticks, doodl
ing, or singing.
Another strategy would be to
make smoking less convenient
by avoiding or altering situa
tions where the person normal
ly smokes, he says.
The clients meet as a group
once a week to discuss their
progress and problems, and the
last day of the third week is
“quit day.” How do most peo
ple feel about quit day?
“That’s scary,’’ Kamarck
says. “Most people are pretty
enthusiastic at the beginning of
the program. . . . (But as quit
day approches) people start get
ting nervous and joking
around.”
After quit day, an emphasis is
put on preventing a return to
smoking. The group members
work specifically on coping
with situations where they
would normally smoke and
overcoming rationalizations.
All members are expected to
make a public commitment to
quit, and participation in the
group process helps to
strengthen that promise.
After completing the pro
gram, clients are contacted at
one-, two-, and three-month in
tervals. At the six-month mark,
they are asked to come in to the
clinic, fill out a questionnaire
and take a carbon-monoxide test
that shows whether or not they
have been smoking. Their last
follow-up contact is one year
later.
Between 60 and 70 percent of
the participants successfully
quit smoking by the end of the
program, and after one year 30
to 35 percent are still non
smokers, Kamarck says.
“Everyone comes away with
a certain feeling of satisfaction
that they’ve accomplished
something, or at least made
some progress,” Kamarck says.
“If they’ve quit, they feel a great
deal of accomplishment, and if
they haven’t, they’re disap
pointed. . . . Our approach is to
encourage them to try again.”
The program costs $40, $25 of
which is an “incentive deposit”
and is refunded after the six
weeks. The Smoking Control
Program is located in Room
475, Straub Hall. For more in
formation. call 686-4903.
Manhattan Transfer returns to Eugene
The Manhattan Transfer is one musical group
that appears to defy categorization. The vocal
quartet turned out ’20s and ’40s tunes in their
first album, with hits like “Operator” and “Tux
edo Junction”; moved into jazz with their Gram
my award winning “Birdland”; and then had hits
with theirVenditions of '50s and '60s bebop songs
like “Trickle Trickle” and “Boy From New York
City.”
The group’s new work also crosses many
genres, including contemporary music, older
hits, and a touch of experimentation, all with
their signature four-part harmonies.
This cross-genre aspect sometimes makes
popular success on the radio difficult (since AM
radio is so narrowly defined), but the Transfer’s
following makes itself felt during tours in sell-out
concerts with standing ovations.
Sunday, the Manhattan Transfer returns to
Eugene for one night only at the Hult Center in
what promises to be another sell-out concert. Hot
off the release of a new album, "Bodies and
Souls," the Transfer is back to dazzle audiences
with their distinctive harmonies and original
arrangements.
Tickets are $14.50 and $18 and are available
at all Hult Ticket Outlets. This is an NW Enter
tainment production.
