چکیده
recent years as an alternative system for delivering smoking cessation services. The convenience of telephone counseling encourages program participation, which has been a significant barrier for formal treatment programs (Fiore et al., 1991; Lichtenstein and Hollis, 1992). Telephone quitlines can also be centralized; for example, one toll-free number can provide most cessation services to smokers in even a large state. This makes it easier and more cost-efficient to promote the services in a large public health campaign.
