Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Aim 2: Examine whether an online Tai Chi intervention reduces cigarette dependence among cancer survivors who are aged 21 and are interested in quitting smoking.
Aim 3: Test whether an online Tai Chi intervention increases quit attempts and cessation abstinence among cancer survivors who are aged 21 or older and are interested in quitting smoking.
OUTLINE: Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I: Participants participate in an 8-week supervised online WaQi/Tai Chi program. Participants receive standard cessation treatment which includes receiving a document highlighting smoking cessation resources.
ARM II: Participants receive standard cessation treatment which includes receiving a document highlighting smoking cessation resources. Participants also receive an 8-week online Tai Chi self-administered teaching module subscription at the end of the study.
