Whether they may be physical or figurative in nature, there have been many tools suggested over the years as ways to help people quit smoking. But the best tool of them all just might be cold, hard cash, according to a recently published study that involved thousands of smokers from several U.S.-based companies.
In a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine earlier this week, a team of researchers led by University of Pennsylvania associate professor Scott Halpern observed a total of 6,006 smokers at 54 different U.S. companies, to see how well they responded to a variety of anti-smoking tools. Out of these workers, 1,191 were classified as “willing to quit” smoking and were placed in groups based on different smoking cessation strategies.
