Promoting Home Smoking Restrictions: Biomarker Feedback to Smoking and Non-Smoking Adults

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This study is directed at decreasing home environmental tobacco smoking (ETS) exposure with a novel approach of adoption of home smoking restrictions. This will be done by providing the cohabitating smoker and non-smoker with biomarker feedback documenting exposure to ETS. The intent is to identify an intervention strategy(ies) to reduce ETS exposure.

Detailed Description
-----------------
This is a two-group interventional trial targeting cohabitating smokers and non-smokers. Participants will be randomized to the control condition or biomarker feedback group.

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Comparison of Self-Reported Home Smoking Restrictions - Active Counseling | Received self-help brochure and biomarker feedback from urine collected from non-smoking adult in home. Outcome criteria categorized into 3 areas: establishment of a complete ban (defined as no one allowed to smoke anywhere, ever), some restrictions (smoking allowed in some places or some time), and no restrictions (smoking permitted anywhere, no rules). | From baseline to week 12 |
