    Author: Backinger CL, McDonald P, Ossip-Klein DJ, Colby SM, Maule CO, Fagan P, Husten C, Colwell B.
    Journal: Am J Health Behav; 2003; 27 Suppl 2():S170-84. PubMed ID: 14521244.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: To provide recommendations that will build a better foundation for research on youth smoking cessation. METHODS: The Youth Tobacco Collaborative Cessation panel evaluated youth tobacco cessation literature and convened meetings to reach consensus. RESULTS: Methodological issues include design, recruitment and retention, follow-up, measurement, and youth vernacular. Research gaps include youth characteristics, theoretical approaches, delivery settings, and type of provider. Thirteen key research components for reporting are addressed. CONCLUSIONS: Given the dearth of studies on youth smoking cessation, scientifically rigorous studies need to be conducted with attention to methodological issues, research gaps, and reporting of key research components.
