The NCSCT has developed a method for identifying effective behaviour change techniques (BCTs) for smoking cessation{SUP:=1}. Using this method we analysed a transcript of the content of the NCSCT training module on Very Brief Advice on Secondhand Smoke{SUP:=2} for the presence of these BCTs.
The behaviour change techniques contained within the NCSCT Very Brief Advice on Secondhand Smoke training module are:
• Provide information on the consequences of smoking and smoking cessation (BCT code: BM1)
• Barrier identification and problem solving (BCT code: BS1)
• Assess current and past smoking behaviour (BCT code: RI1)
• Provide reassurance (BCT code: RC10)
• Assess number of contacts who smoke (BCT code: RI6)
• Provide feedback on performance (BCT code: BM3)
• Explain expectations regarding treatment programme (BCT code: RC4)
• Emphasise choice (BCT code: RD2)
• Goal setting (behavioural) (BCT code: BS4)
• Prompt commitment from the client there and then (BCT code: BM6)
• Build rapport (BCT code: RC1)
• Provide normative information on other’s experiences (BCT code: BM5)
• Advise on and facilitate use of social support (BCT code: A2)
• Elicit client views (BCT code: RC8)
• Help identify reasons for wanting/not wanting to stop smoking (BCT code: BM10)
• Boost motivation and self-efficacy (BCT code: BM2)
• Assess current readiness/ability to quit (BCT code: RI2)
• Provide options for later/additional support (BCT code: A5)
• Advise on stop smoking medications (BCT code: A1)
